Demeyere Atlantis 3-Quart Sauté Pan with Helper Handle and Lid

Straight sides set a sauté pan apart from a fry pan, and they are what let you sear chicken thighs and then add wine and stock to braise them in the same pan. The tall, straight walls also contain the oil for shallow frying and hold a large quantity of greens as they wilt. The 3-quart Atlantis sauté pan is 9.4 inches across with walls about 3 inches high, a size that serves two to four and fits a standard burner.

Demeyere seals a copper disk into the base of the pan to spread heat over the whole floor. Since all of a sauté pan’s work happens on that floor, the even base matters more here than in a pot. A lid comes with the pan for braising and steaming, and a helper handle opposite the long handle makes it easier to carry when full. A rolled rim lets you pour off fat or a pan sauce without drips.

For a family of five or six, or for a whole cut-up chicken, the 5-quart Atlantis sauté pan gives an 11-inch floor. If you want rounded sides for stirring and reducing, compare the 3.5-quart saucier. The Industry 5 3-quart sauté pan is the lighter version of this size, and our Demeyere cookware guide explains the two collections.

    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.
