Our 28cm solid copper bimetal sauté pan has a convenient cast iron helper handle to aid in lifting from hot surfaces. Though the temptation to lift and shake the pan makes most of us believe we're performing a classic sauté, it's not necessary to move the vessel at all during cooking to accomplish the correct sauté technique. It's the action of food jumping and sizzling in the hot oil during cooking that gives this pan its French name. Copper conducts and maintains heat better than other materials used in the cooking industry, so you can enjoy greater control over your efforts. The high straight sides of our sauté pans retain moisture so the texture and flavour of your recipes is perfect.  

  • Straight high sides to maintain moisture
  • 2.5 bimetal construction for even heat distribution
  • Cast iron handle and looped helper handle for safe lifting
  • Yields ten to twelve generous portions

Handcrafted in Belgium

Use tips

  • Suitable for both electric and gas hobs.
  • Oven safe to 280°C/535°F/Gas Mark 8.
  • Because of its superior conductivity, copper (and copper core) cookware rarely requires full heat on a hob, typically no more than 50-75% of full power.  Use a lower flame when cooking with gas.
  • We recommend seasoning pan interiors with a vegetable oil occasionally prior to frying and sautéing, and always use a small amount of oil when pre-heating.
  • Avoid pre-heating an empty saucepan and never allow this to boil dry.
  • When seasoning your food remember to heat the water to boiling point first, especially before adding salt.  This disperses the salt quickly and prevents pitting of the stainless steel lining.

Care tips

  • Always allow pots and pans to cool before cleaning.
  • Do not put Falk cookware in a mechanical dishwasher.
  • We do not recommend the use of products containing bleach for cleaning copper cookware.
  • Hand washing in warm soapy water is normally all that is required.  Always dry immediately after washing with a soft cloth.
  • Copper will develop a rich patina over time.  This will not affect cooking performance.
  • To keep copper pans looking like new, use a suitable polish for copper and a fine abrasive pad.
  • Apply a light coat of vegetable oil to cast iron handles from time to time to prevent rusting.
  • For further information please see this article on maintaining and cleaning copper cookware.
  • Unless otherwise indicated, this item is available. Orders are typically dispatched within 48 hours of receipt. During peak periods this may be up to five working days. If for any reason it is not possible to dispatch your order within five working days, we will notify you immediately.
  • All items are carefully prepared for shipping, wrapped in plastic bubble wrap and protected with polystyrene peanuts, and packed in heavy-duty boxes.
  • Any item damaged in transit will be replaced immediately.
  • Please view our delivery information page for delivery charges to your destination, transit times, and other details.

We know you'll love this 28cm copper saute pan with helper handle as much as we do.

Fantastic Buy How amazing,a fantastic size sauté pan for cooking with high heat. No hot spots perfect size for cooking for 3 or more.

I have been cooking professionally for over 30 yrs using Bourget as well as Mauviel. There main down fall is there up keep.

Falk has come up with a perfect solution using there brushed copper, Now you can spend more time cooking than cleaning.

With there invention of bimetal technology with stainless steal cleaning is made easier as well as no fear of retinning in the future.

excellent, but doubts about handle shape Only used a couple of times thus far.

Key benefit is copper construction giving very even heating, especially as this is 2.5mm thick, so you don't have hot spots and burn stuff. This is of course the whole point of buying a copper pan. I like the stainless lining rather than tin, for greater robustness and I don't perceive any magic in a tin surface - even heating is what stops sticking. Nice feature is the radius of the bottom edge is quite large, so good for stirring. In 28cm size, it is fairly heavy, though not excessive, but does need the helper handle. I quite like the brushed rather than polished finish, and overall construction and feel exudes quality

One negative point, losing a star; I feel the (main) handle comes up rather high and at a funny angle. Maybe it just needs getting used to. Price is OK for 2.5mm copper, albeit not cheap by any means. Service and delivery was exemplary.

HUGE pan, but HEAVY!!! Huge flat base, ideal for sauteing large amounts of food. Heat distribution is excellent just as you would expect from copper, and easy to clean too when you are done. My only reservation about this has to be the weight. It is really, really heavy and would definitely not suit a petit female chef!

Worth every pound! A monster of a vessel, this sauté pan allows you to fit in more ingredients in a single layer, saving you time by reducing the number of batches when browning food. What I used to have to cook in 3 or 4 batches can now be done in 1 or 2.

There are no hotspots. Food browns beautifully and the pan is extremely responsive to heat changes. The pan is very easy to clean after a soak.

The pan's long handle is conveniently slanted. This means that despite the pan's large size, I am still able to place it in our domestic oven. Just put it in diagonally.

The pan is as heavy as it looks even without food. Therefore the helper handle is a welcome addition as the pan's weight can be difficult to support solely with the long handle.

A sauté pan is a must have in my kitchen!

Cooking big! I love the size and sturdiness of these pan. Its big surface and higher sides makes for a less messy affair when sauteing or frying.

Works very well for prawns or fish or even steaks. I am tented to try it outdoors in an open fire....

You know you want it Having previously owned copper sauce pans, this was my first experience with sautéing with copper. I had heard that copper allows for great high heat cooking. My first use involved pan frying steak, which had a lite olive oil marinade. Unfortunately the pan had gotten a lot hotter than i expected and the oil spattered and burnt on to the interior surface, requiring a great deal of effort to clean. Since then i have given this pan a lot more respect with regards to how i use it and what i cook in it, and i have been rewarded with consistently reliable performance. It's very heavy when loaded with food, but the size makes it a very versatile item.

The Finest Copper pans on the market I have used French stainless-steel-lined copper pans for many years, but my first purchase of a Falk saucier convinced me to replace ALL my French copper for Falk pans. And now I am thinking of replacing some of my stainless-steel All-Clad pots and pans with Falk equivalents....the Falk pans are BEAUTIFUL, cook like a dream, and do NOT need to be polished after every use, as the French pans require! I'm hooked!! Sandi G

Too heavy to steal!!! We have a lot of people over this summer and we do a lot of cooking.

We split the preparation of the dishes between the guests and everyone is eager to try the pans we received yesterday. My daughter Karin prpared the different vegetables in this beatiful pan.

She wanted to take it home. Fortunately it is too heavy for het suitcase.

Great product I bought this sauté pan as a Christmas present for my husband. He is a keen cook and very particular about his cookware, but this has definitely met his standards and he loves using it. He wanted this particular pan as it will not need re-tinning unlike some other brands, and because the copper conducts the heat so well you don't need to turn your hob up so high, so it's great for simmering things for a long time as it uses less energy. It's very solidly made and a good weight (i.e. heavy!). He has only had it six months but I'm sure it will last for many years. A brilliant present for someone who is really into their cooking. I'm sure I will be buying more Falk products for other birthday and Christmas presents!
