Horeca pans

What distinguishes professional pans for gastronomy?

Pans for professionals, like horeca pots, have to withstand a lot. Unlike in the home kitchen, where a pan is sometimes not used for several days, horeca pans are used every day. For this reason, the material and workmanship of professional pans must be of particularly high quality. Horeca pans are mainly made of stainless steel, aluminum or cast iron. These materials ensure high thermal conductivity and durability.

What pans are used in gastronomy?

Different pans are used in the catering industry. Classic frying pans with a diameter of 28 centimeters or smaller are used for browning meat or vegetables. In addition, the swing pan also plays an important role in gastronomy. For Asian dishes, the wok pan is central. If it is about cooking and serving specialties, special pans are required. Here at LUSINI you will therefore also find a paella pan or other special pan models.

Pans are also used for serving. Small serving pans or large pans lend themselves to the impressive presentation of food at the table.

Whether you are looking for a horeca pan large or serving pans, LUSINI is the place to go for professional kitchen supplies.

Professional frying pan - which material is the best?

You can find professional frying pans in many different designs at LUSINI. Coated pans are ideal for cooking foods such as vegetables or fine meat and fish as fat-free as possible and at mild temperatures. If you use spatula and similar utensils, you should be careful with coated pans. This is because pointed or sharp kitchen utensils could damage the coating.

If you choose an uncoated pan, you will have to pay less attention to the accessories you use, for example, to turn the meat in the pan. Uncoated pans are ideal for searing. Stainless steel or cast iron pans are best for this purpose. These materials can be heated to high temperatures. Aluminum pans also conduct heat very quickly. Therefore, these pans are also suitable for dishes that need to be heated quickly at high temperatures.

So which is the best material for your professional pans depends on what you want to cook in the pan.
