Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of All-Clad Copper Core 12-Inch Chef's Pan
Customer Review: Beware Amazon's Misinformation
Summary: 4 Stars
I recently received this pan as a gift and, though I have not used it much yet, I think it is necessary to mention that the Amazon product description is wrong--this pan is not a wok, or "wok-like" in anything more than a superficial sense (it has rounded sides). It is much shallower than a standard wok, and has a much larger flat portion on the bottom than a standard flat-bottom wok (it is more like a deep skillet with a lid than it is wok-like). Yes, one could stir-fry in it, but that means little (one could try to stir-fry in a skillet or sauce pan also).
Stir-frying will certainly be easier and better in an actual wok that is deeper and more rounded; I have one made by Calphalon and it is great. As far as this chef's pan goes, I plan to use it primarily for fricassees and braises.
Description of All-Clad Copper Core 12-Inch Chef's Pan
Up until now All-Clad's excellent heat conductivity has been a result of an aluminum core. Another metal equally efficient when it comes to conducting heat is copper. All-Clad now has a complete line of copper core stainless steel cookware which uses bonded 5-ply construction to achieve culinary perfection. The copper core is exposed in an attractive band around each piece, adding warmth, color, and authenticity. Unlike pans with an abundance of exposed copper, these pieces clean easily and are lined with durable food-safe stainless steel. The chef's pan is a large all-purpose piece that can be used for poaching, sauteing, simmering, and more. The lid allows you to cook with moist heat and the rounded contours facilitate the use of spatulas, spoons and whisks.The ultimate in beautiful, high-performance cookware, All-Clad's innovative Copper Core collection combines the unexcelled heat conductivity of copper with the easy maintenance of stainless steel. Crafted of a unique five-ply construction, the cookware contains a core of pure copper that spreads heat quickly and evenly across the bottoms of pots and pans and all the way up the sides. Aluminum layers bond the copper to a stainless-steel exterior and a stainless-steel interior. Enhancing the cookware's appearance, a stripe of the copper core elegantly encircles the gleaming, mirror-finish exterior. The interior is highly polished so it's stick- as well as corrosion-resistant. Rolled edges on pots and pans help prevent drips during pouring and ensure tight-fitting lids.
This beautiful, rounded, wok-like pan with a narrow, flat bottom demonstrates why All-Clad's worldwide reputation is unsurpassed. It's 12 inches in diameter and 3 inches deep, perfect for stir-frying pad thai or cooking asparagus in black-bean sauce under the pan's domed lid. Its long, polished 18/10 stainless-steel handle is riveted to the pan for strength, grooved on the top and rounded on the bottom for comfort, and holed in the end for hanging on a hook or peg. Like the pan's helper handle, it stays cool on the stovetop but won't be harmed by an oven's highest heat. Hand washing this pan will preserve its jewel-like beauty during the lifetime warranty against defects--and beyond. --Fred Brack
