Basalt™ 2 Piece 10 Inch Saute Skillet with Lid

Construction

The Nordic Ware Basalt 10 Inch Saute Skillet with Lid combines formed aluminum cookware with a stainless steel lid for versatile everyday cooking. The formed aluminum construction promotes efficient, even heating for searing meats, sauteing vegetables, browning ingredients, and simmering sauces. Both pieces are oven safe, making this two piece set well suited for stovetop to oven cooking. Part of the Nordic Ware Basalt Cookware line, the skillet features a basalt colored exterior and speckled interior for a distinctive modern look.

Nonstick Performance

A Swiss made 3 layer ceramic nonstick interior coating promotes easy food release and supports low oil cooking. The cooking surface is well suited for eggs, fish, chicken, vegetables, and other everyday ingredients while helping simplify cleanup. The included lid provides coverage for simmering, braising, steaming, and other covered cooking methods.

Size and Versatility

The 10 inch saute skillet provides a practical cooking surface for everyday meals, with room for searing, sauteing, simmering, and preparing generous portions. The stainless steel lid fits securely over the skillet for covered cooking and helps retain heat and moisture. With both pieces designed for oven use, you can move meals from stovetop to oven without transferring food to another pan. The set is well suited for one pan meals, weeknight dinners, and a variety of cooking techniques.

Handle and Stovetop Capability

The riveted stainless steel skillet handle provides a comfortable, ergonomic grip for controlled handling while cooking. The stainless steel lid features a stainless steel knob for a secure grip when lifting or repositioning the lid. The skillet is compatible with gas, electric, and ceramic stovetops, providing flexibility for a variety of kitchen setups.

Oven and Care

Both pieces are oven safe to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. The handle may discolor at temperatures above the oven safe limit, so use caution when transferring from stovetop to oven. The skillet should be hand washed with warm, soapy water and used with silicone, nylon, or wooden utensils to help protect the ceramic nonstick surface. The stainless steel lid is dishwasher safe for convenient cleanup.
