Are you looking for a frying pan that combines the benefits of a durable stainless steel pan with the convenience of a non-stick coating? Then the stainless steel honeycomb frying pan (also known as hexagon or honeycomb) is the innovation your kitchen needs. Whether you cook on induction, gas, or ceramic, these pans are designed to last for years without damaging the non-stick coating.
In this article, we explain how the unique honeycomb structure works, why it is the ideal induction pan, and which pans from our range best suit your cooking style.
What is a stainless steel honeycomb frying pan and how does it work?
You can immediately recognize a stainless steel honeycomb pan by the hexagonal pattern on the cooking surface. This pattern is not only stylish, but also serves a very clever purpose:
- Protected non-stick coating: The stainless steel grid sits slightly higher than the non-stick coating between the cells. This means your spatulas and kitchen utensils come into contact with the stainless steel rather than the delicate coating.
- Scratch-resistant and durable: Because the coating is protected, you can use metal kitchen utensils without damaging the non-stick surface.
- Perfect fat distribution: Oil and butter spread evenly through the microchannels of the honeycomb structure. This ensures a crispy result with less fat.
The benefits at a glance
- Suitable for all heat sources: The thick base is ideal for induction cooktops, but performs just as well on gas and electric stoves.
- High temperature resistance: Because the base is made of stainless steel, the pan can withstand higher temperatures than a standard non-stick pan. Ideal for searing meat!
- Easy to clean: Food does not stick, and the pan is dishwasher-safe (although washing by hand always extends its lifespan).
