30 DAYS OPEN PURCHASETwo frying pans in a set cover the most common scenarios without overlap: 22 cm for one portion, an egg, a piece of fish or some other individual component, 28 cm for the daily standard format that holds four to six portions, a couple of chicken breasts or a large batch of vegetables.
Hestan's NanoBond process bonds thousands of titanium-based nano-layers to the surface of 18/10 steel at a molecular level via a vacuum chamber procedure in an oxygen-free environment at extremely high temperature. Titanium and chromium-based alloys are permanently fused with the steel structure, without lying on top of it. The surface is four times harder than the underlying 18/10 steel, non-porous and non-reactive. Titanium does not react with acids, fats or proteins. Acidic marinades, citrus and wine-based sauces do not react with the surface and do not release metallic flavour. The titanium surface is free from synthetic coating agents. Metal utensils, metal spatulas and steel wool do not damage the surface in any practical sense.
The titanium surface is not non-stick like a coated pan. Correct technique: sufficient preheating but not too hot, sufficient fat for cooking and not trying to move proteins before they naturally release their hold on the surface. The lower friction of the titanium surface compared to ordinary steel helps but does not replace correct technique. The pans are made in three layers of steel with a ProCore core of pure aluminium. Hestan states that the ProCore core provides 35 percent better heat conductivity compared to other three-layer frying pans. Even heating, no cold spots, responsive temperature control. Withstands heat up to 565 degrees Celsius. Hob, oven, grill without restriction. Works on all heat sources including induction. Dishwasher safe with sealed edges. Made by Hestan.
