The Arcos Samoa Inox 24 cm frying pan is the perfect tool for anyone looking to cook healthily without giving up professional results. Its full-body tri-ply stainless steel construction ensures even heat distribution, delivering uniform cooking and perfect browning across the entire surface. At 24 cm in diameter, it is the most versatile size for preparing everything from vegetable stir-fries for two to steaks, fish or omelettes for the whole family. Compatible with all types of hob including induction, this frying pan is 100% PFAS-free (PFOA, PTFE and PFOS), letting you cook with complete peace of mind and no release of toxic substances.<\/p>\n
The tri-ply stainless steel of the Samoa Inox 24 cm frying pan combines layers of stainless steel with an aluminium core that acts as an efficient heat conductor. This structure allows rapid, even heating that stays stable throughout cooking, avoiding cold spots that can ruin your recipes. The high-quality induction base ensures full compatibility with gas, electric, ceramic and induction hobs, and it is also oven safe, greatly expanding your culinary possibilities. The 3-year Arcos warranty backs the quality and durability of this frying pan.<\/p>\n
Unlike pans with non-stick coatings that wear away over time, the Samoa Inox 24 cm frying pan has no coating that can deteriorate. This means it withstands the use of stainless steel utensils without damage, resists high temperatures without releasing harmful substances and keeps its performance intact for decades. The stainless steel handle and rivets offer a firm, secure grip even when the pan is hot. You can use it intensively in a professional or home kitchen without worrying about replacing it every few years, making it a smart long-term investment.<\/p>\n
Cooking with stainless steel lets you develop advanced culinary techniques that are impossible with non-stick. You can sear meat at high temperature, creating a caramelised crust that seals in the juices, deglaze the pan with wine or stock to make richly flavoured sauces from the cooking residues, or carry out quick stir-fries that keep vegetables crisp. Stainless steel does not alter the flavour of food and allows ingredients to develop their full aromatic potential. Once you master the right preheating technique and use of oil, cooking with stainless steel becomes second nature and the results far surpass any non-stick pan.<\/p>\n
At 24 cm in diameter and with a height suited to flipping ingredients without spills, this pan is ideal for preparing 2-3 servings of most recipes. Its balanced weight provides stability on the hob without being excessively heavy to handle, and the weight distribution makes saut\u00e9ing movements easier. The stainless steel handle stays cool enough for safe handling during most cooking, though we recommend using protection when the pan has been over the heat for a prolonged period or in the oven.<\/p>\n
The complete absence of PFAS in the Samoa Inox 24 cm frying pan makes a fundamental difference to your health. There is no release of toxic substances during cooking, even at high temperatures, and stainless steel is an inert material that does not react with food, preserving its natural flavour and nutritional properties. This feature is especially valued by people with chemical sensitivities, families with small children and health professionals who prioritise ingredient quality and food safety. Cooking with stainless steel is cooking naturally, just as it was done for generations before the arrival of chemical coatings.<\/p>\n
Caring for your Samoa Inox 24 cm frying pan is simple if you follow a few basic guidelines. Always preheat gradually to take advantage of the heat retention of tri-ply steel, clean with hot water after each use while the pan is still warm, and dry it completely before storing. If any residue sticks, add a few drops of water and let it soak for a few minutes before cleaning. Although it is dishwasher safe, hand washing extends its service life while keeping the stainless steel shine. With this basic care, your Samoa Inox pan will serve you for decades, performing like new.<\/p>\n
