A regular skillet can feel too shallow when you are simmering a pot of samlor or braising chicken for a family meal. The HexClad 5.5 Qt Deep Sauté Pan has 3.5-inch sides that hold more liquid and help reduce splatter on the stove. It works on induction, gas, electric, and ceramic cooktops. The tempered glass lid lets you check the food without lifting the lid. If you want one deep pan for soups, curries, stir-fries, and one-pot dishes, this pan is worth learning more about.
Product Summary
The HexClad 5.5 Qt Hybrid Nonstick Deep Sauté Pan is a deep cooking pan with a tempered glass lid. It has high sides for holding sauces and liquids. The pan is made with a stainless steel and aluminum tri-ply body. It works on induction, gas, electric, and ceramic cooktops.
Why We Recommend It
We selected this pan because its depth and size suit the kind of cooking that Cambodian and Southeast Asian home cooks often do: simmering soups, braising meats, stir-frying vegetables, and preparing one-pot meals. The 5.5-quart capacity gives enough room for family-size dishes. The hybrid surface combines stainless steel ridges with a nonstick coating, which may help with searing and easy cleanup. It is induction-ready and oven-safe, which adds flexibility for different cooking methods.
Best For
This pan is best for home cooks who want one deep pan for searing, braising, simmering, and frying. It suits people who cook soups, curries, braised dishes, and one-pot meals. It may also work well for cooks who want a pan that can go from the stovetop to the oven.
Things to Consider
The pan weighs about 3.5 lbs, which may feel heavy to some users. The tempered glass lid is oven-safe to 400°F, while the pan itself is oven-safe to 900°F. The hexagonal surface is not a traditional smooth nonstick coating, so some foods may need a little oil or butter. The pan is dishwasher-safe, but hand washing may help extend the life of the nonstick surface.
