Krauff Prime Chef deep frying pan 26 cm

The Krauff Prime Chef universal deep frying pan with a diameter of 26 cm combines the capabilities of a classic frying pan and a pot for stewing. The high sides are convenient for stews, pasta with sauce, meat with vegetables, noodles, and dishes that need to be stirred frequently. The forged aluminum body and Greblon C2 non-stick coating promote stable heating, help use less oil, and simplify cleaning.

For what dishes and tasks

The deep design with a diameter of 26 cm is suitable for frying, sautéing, stewing, and preparing dishes with sauce. It is convenient to cook meat, poultry, fish, vegetables, stews, pasta, noodles, and side dishes in it without spilling ingredients during active stirring.

Body material and heating

The body is made of forged aluminum, which quickly reacts to temperature changes of the stove and promotes even heat distribution across the working surface. For a predictable result, use a burner of the appropriate diameter, increase the power gradually, and reduce the heat after adding sauce or liquid.

Non-stick coating and safe use

The inner surface has a Greblon C2 non-stick coating. It reduces food sticking, allows you to use less oil, and simplifies cleaning. The official Krauff FAQ states that the brand's non-stick coatings do not contain PFOA. To preserve the surface for longer, use silicone, wooden, or plastic accessories and do not cut food directly in the frying pan.

Handle, lid, and design

The Bakelite handle with a Soft-Touch coating sits comfortably in the hand. The screw mounting securely connects the handle to the body. The set includes a deep frying pan with a diameter of 26 cm; a lid is not specified in the product specifications.

Stove compatibility and care

The model is compatible with gas, electric, halogen, and induction stoves. The possibility of dishwasher cleaning is not specified in the specifications of this model, so manual washing with warm water and a soft sponge is recommended for maintenance. Allow the pan to cool down naturally before cleaning.

How to take care of the cookware
