All-Clad Copper Core Non-stick Skillet - 12

All-Clad, initially created to fulfill the needs of professional chefs, remains the unrivaled choice in four-star kitchens around the globe. Renowned for its remarkable design and functionality, the cookware showcases elegant lines and exceptional balance. Each piece benefits from meticulous hand-finishing, superior heat conductivity, and features a stylish exterior copper accent band.

The unique construction of All-Clad cookware involves a robust copper core enveloped in two layers of aluminum. This core is then sandwiched between a highly polished, easy-to-clean stainless steel cooking surface and a durable stainless steel exterior. Thanks to this innovative metal bonding process, the combination of copper and aluminum allows for excellent heat conductivity, ensuring even heat distribution across the bottom and up the sides of the cookware. This design effectively eliminates hot spots, which can affect cooking performance.

Moreover, the non-stick interior offers outstanding food release properties and simplifies the cleaning process. The stainless steel exterior not only contributes to the cookware's durability but also imparts a radiant finish, enhancing its aesthetic appeal.

The skillet design features sloping sides that facilitate the easy turning and removal of food. This design choice also promotes rapid moisture evaporation, allowing pan sauces to reduce quickly, while ensuring that foods sear rather than steam. The non-stick skillet’s capabilities make it particularly suitable for searing delicate items prone to sticking or breaking apart, such as fish, as well as for creating pancakes, fried eggs, omelets, or crêpes.

In addition, the skillet is equipped with a long handle that remains cool to the touch, securely attached with non-corrosive stainless steel rivets for added durability. Unlike standard non-stick coatings, this skillet features an advanced reinforced system. The preparation of the substrate surface begins with an abrasive blasting, which improves the adherence of subsequent layers.

Next, white hot particles of stainless steel are sprayed onto the substrate and once cooled and hardened, they integrate into the substrate's surface to create a texture of “peaks and valleys.” The non-stick coating is applied in two stages: the first layer settles into the valleys, while a second layer fills in the valleys and covers the peaks. This results in a smooth, uniform surface that enhances the non-stick properties of the cookware.

All-Clad cookware is sold individually and is available in a size of 12 inches, with dimensions measuring 12" in diameter and a depth of 2¼". This combination of craftsmanship, innovative technology, and user-centric design propels All-Clad to the forefront of culinary tools, making it a staple in kitchens of professional chefs and home cooks alike. With its combination of aesthetic appeal and remarkable performance, All-Clad cookware stands as a testament to what culinary excellence can achieve.
