Demeyere Industry 5 4.25-Quart Stainless Steel Saucepan with Lid

The 4.25-quart Industry 5 saucepan is the largest saucepan in the collection, big enough for a double batch of rice or a pot of chili for four. At about 8.7 inches across, it still fits a medium burner.

With its five-layer cladding reaching the rim, a large volume of liquid heats evenly. A dripless pouring rim makes it easier to pour soup into bowls or drain blanching water.

It is also a good size for blanching vegetables before shocking them in ice water. Customers deciding between this and the 3.2-quart saucepan should consider batch size. The smaller pan is lighter for daily rice and vegetables; this one handles soups and larger family meals. For pasta in quantity, the Industry 5 8.5-quart stock pot gives the water room to stay at a boil. Both are part of the Industry 5 10-piece set, and our Demeyere cookware guide has more on choosing.

    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. Industry 5 is dishwasher safe, but its rim leaves the aluminum layer exposed, so Demeyere specifies a detergent that is safe for aluminum and recommends washing by hand for regular use. Do not plunge a hot pan into cold water.
