Stainless steel and glass steamer set, made in France by CRISTEL and from the Collection 1826.
This collection draws inspiration from Cristel's past creations, especially their earliest designs, in 1826. Indeed, it was in their factory that the world's first stamped saucepan was produced on that date. 200 years have passed and Cristel has decided to pay tribute to this historic product by creating a new collection based on its design. Of course, Cristel has taken care to bring to this collection 1826 all the expertise and technical advances of our time.
The steamer set consists of:
- a 1826stainless steel
casserole
- a glass steamer insert
- a glass lid
CASSEROLE:
The casserole has a slightly conical design. It features a thermo-diffuser base 3 layers (stainless steel, aluminium, stainless steel), which is highly efficient.
This base allows :
- optimal thermal efficiency
- very good and even heat distribution
- healthier cooking without added fat
- retention of utensil temperature during serving.
Thus, as the heat distribution is even, you can easily cook with it without adding fats.
The solid stainless steel used is brushed, giving it an even more authentic and traditional touch.
The handles of this casserole are fixed : the flat heat-resistant handles are made of polished solid stainless steel. They are securely riveted. Heat is not conducted to the handles on induction and ceramic hobs, thus preventing burns. The grip is ergonomic and comfortable. Their finish is polished stainless steel, providing a beautiful contrast with the brushed appearance of the casserole.
You can use your casserole daily as it is compatible and suitable for all heat sources, including induction, and also in the oven (up to 250°C max, without lid and without grill. 220°C max with lid)
This casserole is a high-end utensil for easy everyday use.
Thanks to the stainless steel 18/10 (the best quality available) with which it is coated, your food is perfectly cooked and healthy.
