Real copper on the outside, nothing sprayed on the inside: the copper deep chef pan that is what the label says. Many pans sold as copper are copper-coloured: a thin body with a copper-coloured coating on the outside and a nonstick spray on the inside. Their own reviews read the same way: great for three uses, then everything sticks, then the centre warps. This one is different where it counts. The outside is real copper, not paint. The cooking surface is bare, non-reactive metal with nothing sprayed on it. Heat the pan first, add a little oil, and it cooks the way a real pan does. The pan for braises, risotto and sauces with volume: room to brown first, then liquid, then time. Why you'll love it: Real copper exterior: copper on the outside, not a copper-coloured coating Nothing sprayed on: a bare, non-reactive cooking surface, so nothing to peel, flake or wear off Works on induction: the base is induction compatible, and it works on gas and electric too It darkens, because it is copper: lemon and salt brings it back, or leave it Available in two sizes: 20 × 12.5 cm and 24 × 14.5 cm. Works on gas, electric and induction hobs. Hand wash. Warranty in writing. Copper on the outside, a multi-metal body underneath built to spread heat across the base and work on induction, and a non-reactive cooking surface with nothing sprayed on it. We describe the construction as a whole rather than as a layer list, and we would rather say that plainly than pretend otherwise.
