The Arcos Samoa Inox 28 cm frying pan is the professional tool for those who regularly cook for 4-5 people or prepare recipes that call for generous space. Its full-body tri-ply stainless steel construction ensures even heat distribution, delivering uniform cooking and perfect browning even at this large size. At 28 cm in diameter, it offers enough capacity to prepare several pieces of protein at once, abundant vegetable stir-fries, rice dishes or family paellas without crowding the ingredients. 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 28 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, which is especially important in large pans where heat distribution can be uneven in lower-quality materials. The high-quality induction base ensures full compatibility with gas, electric, ceramic and induction hobs, and it is also oven safe, letting you start stir-fries over a high heat and finish gratins in the oven without changing pans. The 3-year Arcos warranty demonstrates its confidence in the durability of this professional frying pan.<\/p>\n
The 28 cm size is the professional choice for home kitchens that want capacity without reaching the extreme size of 30 cm. It is perfect for preparing meals when you have guests, cooking large batches to freeze in portions, or simply enjoying enough room to flip and saut\u00e9 ingredients without limitations. You can cook 4-5 steaks, whole breasts or chicken supremes without them touching each other, ensuring even browning. It is also ideal for preparing generous soffritti, the base of many Mediterranean recipes, or for saut\u00e9ing vegetables while keeping room for the pan movements that define professional cooking.<\/p>\n
Unlike large pans with non-stick coatings that wear out quickly under intensive use, the Samoa Inox 28 cm frying pan has no coating that can deteriorate. This means real professional durability that withstands intensive daily use, resists contact with stainless steel utensils without damage, and keeps its performance intact for decades. The stainless steel handle and rivets offer a firm, secure grip even when the pan is full of ingredients. Its weight, though more substantial than smaller sizes, is balanced to allow comfortable handling and provides the stability needed on powerful hobs.<\/p>\n
Cooking with stainless steel at 28 cm lets you develop professional-level culinary techniques. You can sear multiple pieces of meat at once at high temperature, creating perfect caramelised crusts, prepare abundant stir-fries over a high heat without the ingredients losing temperature, or carry out controlled frying with enough room to turn without splashing. Stainless steel allows spectacular deglazing, using the cooking residues to create richly flavoured sauces. With this pan you will discover that cooking large quantities with professional results is possible in your own kitchen.<\/p>\n
The complete absence of PFAS in the Samoa Inox 28 cm frying pan makes a fundamental difference when you cook large quantities for your family or guests. There is no release of toxic substances during cooking, even at the sustained high temperatures needed to cook generous volumes, and stainless steel is an inert material that does not react with food. This feature is especially valued by serious home cooks who prioritise both culinary quality and food safety. Cooking with quality stainless steel is cooking like the professionals, without compromising your health.<\/p>\n
Caring for your Samoa Inox 28 cm frying pan takes some attention but is simple. Always preheat gradually to take advantage of the heat retention of tri-ply steel, avoiding overheating. Clean with hot water after each use, and if any residue sticks after cooking large quantities, add water and let it soak for a few minutes before cleaning. Dry it completely before storing. Although it is dishwasher safe, hand washing extends its service life and keeps the stainless steel shine impeccable.<\/p>\n
