Demeyere Frying Pan 'Proline 7'

The pan is solid. A 28cm Proline 7 weighs about 1.7 kg; the 32cm weighs over 2 kg. For daily home use, this is manageable, but it is true that the pan is heavy.

Yes, on all heat sources, including induction. Thanks to TriplInduc technology, you can cook on induction with up to 30% more energy efficiency. Once the pan is up to temperature, you can turn the heat down a few settings; it retains heat for a long time.

Yes, the pan is dishwasher-safe. Regular dishwashing does not affect the pan's cooking performance thanks to the Silvinox coating.

Preheating properly is key. Heat the pan in 2 steps to a maximum temperature of 70-80% of your heat source's power, then add the fat. Next, reduce the heat source to half power; because the pan has 7 layers, the heat will stay in the pan. When frying meat, wait until it releases on its own before turning it (usually about 2 minutes). Meat that sticks hasn't formed its crust yet; give it time.

For most home cooks, the 28cm is the best all-rounder. Large enough for a good-sized entrecôte or multiple chicken fillets, yet compact enough for daily use. The 24cm is ideal for 1-2 people. The 32cm is suitable for those who regularly cook large quantities.

Yes, without any restrictions. The Proline 7 does not have a non-stick coating that can be damaged. Metal kitchen utensils are perfectly fine to use. This may cause scratches in the pan, but it makes no difference to the cooking process.

Because the rim is as thick as the base, the entire cooking surface, including the sides, heats evenly. This gives you up to 50% more browning surface. That makes a difference with large cuts of meat or a full pan: everything browns evenly.

Let the pan cool, then pour in hot water to loosen any residue. Wash with a soft sponge and dishwashing liquid. Use Demeyere cleaning cream for discoloration or stubborn baked-on food. You can use steel wool or a scouring pad, but this will scratch the pan.

Yes, fully oven-safe up to 250 degrees Celsius. The stainless steel baking surface and handle can withstand high temperatures. The handle will also heat up in the oven, so use oven mitts.

30-year warranty against manufacturing defects under normal domestic use. The Proline 7 is an investment for life and Demeyere fully stands behind that.

Because it can handle what a professional kitchen demands: high temperatures, heavy use, and lasting for years. The thick bottom and rim ensure consistent cooking results. At home, you benefit from the same quality.

Perform the water drop test: drop a bead of water into the preheated pan. If the drop dances around like a ball of mercury, the pan is ready. Then add fat and turn the heat down slightly before frying.

Yes, eggs also work with the right technique. Heat over a medium flame, add a knob of butter, and fry once the foam has disappeared. The egg cooks gently without sticking. With a little practice, it works every time.

Absolutely. The residues left after frying meat or vegetables are the basis for a flavourful sauce. Deglaze the pan with wine, stock, or broth and scrape the residues loose. The Proline 7 is the ideal pan for this, also because the cooking surface extends high up the sides.
