28cm Uncoated Stainless Steel Frying Pan — Chemical-Free Cooking
This 28cm frying pan is made from 304-grade stainless steel throughout — body, sides, and handle — with a polished uncoated interior that relies on technique rather than a chemical layer to reduce sticking. The long riveted handle provides a firm grip and sits away from the heat source, making the pan straightforward to manoeuvre. At 28cm it is a practical size for searing steaks, sauteing vegetables, or cooking omelettes for two. Stainless steel at this grade resists rust and discolouration over long-term use. The uncoated surface means there is no coating to chip or wear off, which suits cooks who prefer to avoid PTFE or ceramic non-stick layers.
- 304 Stainless Steel Build: Pan body, sides, and handle are all 304-grade steel — rust-resistant and built to last without flaking or surface degradation over years of use.
- Chemical-Free Cooking Surface: No PTFE, ceramic, or synthetic coating on the interior, making it a practical choice for cooks who want to avoid chemical non-stick layers.
- Long Riveted Handle: The stainless steel handle is secured with rivets for a firm, stable connection that does not loosen through repeated heating and cooling cycles.
- 28cm Practical Diameter: Sized for steaks, stir-fries, and omelettes for two — enough surface area for a full portion without occupying the entire hob.
- Dishwasher Safe: The all-steel construction tolerates dishwasher cleaning, though hand washing keeps the polished finish in better condition for longer.
304 Stainless Steel — No Coatings, No Chemical Layer
This 28cm frying pan is made from 304-grade stainless steel throughout, including the long riveted handle. The interior is left uncoated — no PTFE, no ceramic, no synthetic surface. The polished brushed finish, combined with correct heat management, reduces food from sticking without relying on a chemical layer. For cooks who prefer to move away from coated pans, this is the practical, long-lasting choice.
Heat Performance and Hob Compatibility
The 28cm diameter suits steaks, stir-fries, and omelettes for two. Stainless steel distributes heat evenly when brought to temperature gradually over medium heat before adding oil. Suitable for gas, electric, and ceramic hobs. Induction compatibility depends on base construction — confirm with the supplier before ordering if you have an induction hob.
Long-Term Durability
304-grade steel resists rust and surface discolouration over years of regular use. With no coating to chip or flake, the cooking surface remains consistent throughout the pan's lifespan. The all-steel build is dishwasher-safe, though hand washing preserves the brushed finish better over time.
