Demeyere Atlantis 1.6-Quart Stainless Steel Saucepan with Lid

The 1.6-quart Atlantis saucepan handles small jobs that would be lost in a larger pot, such as melting butter, warming milk for hot chocolate or reheating a single serving of soup. At just over 6 inches across, it fits the smallest burner on the stove.

Small pans scorch easily because the burner’s heat concentrates in a tiny area. Demeyere gives this one the same copper-cored base as its large pots, and that base distributes the heat over the bottom so milk and cream sauces are less likely to catch. A rolled pouring rim lets you pour hollandaise or melted chocolate without a drip down the side.

For rice for four or a batch of oatmeal, the 2.25-quart saucepan is the better size, and the 3.2-quart handles potatoes and vegetables. If you whisk sauces, consider the 2.1-quart saucier, whose rounded sides leave no corner for a sauce to stick. Our Demeyere cookware guide sets out how the Atlantis pieces compare.

    Before First Use

    Remove the labels and packaging, using a little acetone to lift any adhesive. Wash in warm water with a little dish soap, rinse and dry thoroughly.


    Tips for Best Results

    • Cook over medium heat. Demeyere notes that 20 to 30 percent below the burner’s maximum is enough for frying.
    • To keep food from sticking, preheat the pan, add the fat, and lower the heat a level or two once butter stops foaming or oil begins to shimmer. Wait about 10 seconds, then add the food and let it release before turning it.
    • On induction, use a zone close to the size of the base and save the booster setting for boiling water. On gas, keep the flame under the base.
    • Add salt to water only after it boils, since undissolved salt can leave small pits in stainless steel.
    • The handles stay cool on the stovetop, but they get hot in the oven. Use a pot holder or oven mitt.

    Care

    Let the pan cool before washing. Use warm water, dish soap and a soft sponge or brush; never steel wool, abrasive powders or bleach. Soak burnt-on food in warm soapy water, overnight if needed. White spots or a rainbow tint come from minerals in the water and wipe away with a splash of vinegar. Demeyere lists Atlantis as dishwasher safe but recommends washing by hand for regular use. Do not plunge a hot pan into cold water.
