    IDEAS FOR USE

    Getting the most out of your Ruffoni Chef's Pan

    There's a reason they call it the "Chef's" pan: taller than a frying pan, but lower than a stockpot, with a wide opening and gently rounded sides, this shape is a cookware wonder, the perfect tool for infinite recipes.

    Sauté vegetables with one hand thanks to the high rounded sides, brown chunks of meat on the wide bottom then simmer gently into rich stews, or toss pasta to coat it with its thickened sauce.

    While practical and versatile, the Chef pan really shines when making risotto: its wide base ensures a steady absorption of broth, so that all flavors are absorbed while water evaporates quickly, and the rounded sides ease stirring and prevent stubborn grains from getting stuck in the corners. Explore combinations of flavors, from porcini mushrooms and truffle to seafood, all kinds of cheese and vegetables.

    Choose this convenient kitchen workhorse for a novice home chef's present or treat yourself: it's the perfect starting point for a copper collection that will grow over the years!

    USE AND CARE FOR THE OPUS CUPRA COLLECTION

    Taking care of your Ruffoni the right way

    Cooking

    Recommended for use on gas stovetops, open flames (wood, charcoal, barbecue) and in the oven - electric cooktops also possible. Use a burner that is similar in diameter to the cookware, never heat the pot empty and do not exceed 230 C (450 F). To avoid scratching or dulling the polished surface, do not use knives, sharp kitchen tools, corrosive detergents and metal scouring pads.

    Washing and Polishing

    Hand-wash with a soft sponge and mild detergent, and dry immediately with a soft cloth.With use, copper develops a rich patina over time that many love and cherish. To restore a polished shine, use a good copper polish (like Ruffoni Cleaner) or salt with lemon juice/vinegar.

    FAQs

    The stainless steel lining has changed color – how can I clean it?

    Over time, the stainless steel lining of your cookware may change color or develop rainbow-like stains. This phenomenon – known as heat tint – is purely cosmetic and does not affect the quality or performance of the cookware. To restore the stainless steel lining’s original shine, we recommend using a commercial stainless steel cleaner (such as Bar Keepers Friend) or white vinegar diluted with water.

    Can I use copper cookware on induction cooktops?

    Copper is a non-ferrous, non-magnetic metal, so our copper cookware isn't induction-suitable, but we do offer best-in-class clad stainless steel cookware that is ideal for induction cooktops.

    Is stainless steel-lined copper non-reactive?

    Yes, stainless steel is non-reactive and suitable for cooking acidic foods.

    Does stainless steel reduce copper performance?

    High-quality stainless steel linings are applied thinly to preserve copper’s excellent heat conductivity.
