Evenly Cooked Fish – With TransTherm-Allherdboden base

TransTherm-Allherdboden is a multi-layer floor construction that spreads heat across the pan and holds warmth for longer. The thicker base reduces hot spots and maintains steady temperature during cooking.

Consistent heat makes it easier to cook whole fish without burning tails or undercooked centre. Expect more reliable results with less need to constantly move the pan on the hob.

Keep an Eye While Cooking – With the included glass lid

A tempered glass lid sits over the oval pan, allowing visual checks without lifting the lid and losing heat. The lid matches the pan's shape for a snug cover.

Monitoring roasting or steaming is straightforward, so moisture and flavours stay locked in. Less opening means steadier cooking and fewer temperature fluctuations.

Large Family Portions – With a 38 x 26 x 6.5 cm oval serving pan

The pan measures 38 x 26 x 6.5 cm and is described as ideal for hot plates with 22 cm, offering a wide oval surface for whole fish and larger cuts.

Plenty of space fits whole fish or several servings at once, simplifying meal prep for families. The shape helps present food directly from pan to table for informal serving.
