Stainless Steel Saucepan – Frequently Asked Questions (NZ)

Are stainless steel saucepans good for everyday cooking?

Yes! Stainless steel saucepans are perfect for everyday use because they’re durable, non-reactive, and deliver even heat distribution. They’re great for boiling, simmering, and making sauces without changing your food’s flavour.

Do stainless steel saucepans work on induction cooktops?

Most stainless steel saucepans are induction-friendly. To check, place a magnet at the base — if it sticks, it’s induction compatible. This makes them a top choice for modern New Zealand kitchens.

How do I clean a stainless steel saucepan properly?

Let the pan cool before washing. Use warm soapy water and a soft sponge. For burnt food or stains, sprinkle baking soda and soak for a few minutes. Avoid harsh scrubbers to keep its shine intact.

Why do stainless steel saucepans sometimes discolour?

Discolouration happens from heat or mineral deposits in water. It’s harmless and can be removed using a mix of vinegar and water or a stainless steel cleaner to restore its shine.

Are stainless steel saucepans safe and non-toxic?

Absolutely. Stainless steel is a non-toxic, chemical-free material — free from PFOA and PTFE. It’s one of the safest options for cooking, suitable even for acidic foods.

Can I use metal utensils with stainless steel saucepans?

Yes, you can! Stainless steel is tough and scratch-resistant. However, using silicone or wooden utensils helps maintain its mirror-like finish for longer.

How can I stop food from sticking to my stainless steel saucepan?

Preheat the pan on medium heat, then add oil before cooking. This forms a natural non-stick layer and helps with even browning and easy food release.

Is stainless steel dishwasher-safe?

Most stainless steel saucepans are dishwasher-safe, but hand washing helps preserve their polish. Always dry them after washing to avoid water spots or streaks.

What size stainless steel saucepan should I choose?

For singles or couples, a 16–18 cm saucepan works best. For families, a 20–24 cm size offers versatility for larger meals. Saucepan sets are ideal for those who cook often.

Why choose a stainless steel saucepan over a non-stick one?

Stainless steel saucepans are long-lasting and can handle high heat and metal utensils. Unlike non-stick cookware, they don’t wear out easily and are great for searing, simmering, and boiling.
