Matfer Bourgeat Excellence 2 3/8-quart Sauce Pan

Two and a half quarts is the everyday sauce pan size: enough for a pot of rice, a batch of polenta or blanched green beans for four. The Excellence version has straight sides and a heavy sandwich base that holds a steady simmer without hot spots.

The welded, watertight handle stays cool on the stovetop. For a smaller pan, see the 1 3/4-quart; for a larger one, the 4-quart. The matching lid is the 18 cm Excellence lid.


What Fits in 2 3/8 Quarts

This capacity holds a pound of potatoes for mashing, a pot of rice for four or a double batch of custard for ice cream. The straight sides keep evaporation steady, which is what a recipe assumes when it gives a simmering time. Because the base is a full sandwich of stainless steel and aluminum, a thick pastry cream can be stirred over medium heat without the bottom catching, and the pan can go from a gas burner to an induction hob without any change in how it cooks.

    Excellence lids are sized in centimeters; the last two digits of a piece’s item number give its diameter.


    Care

    • Dishwasher safe; hand washing keeps the polished finish bright.
    • Preheat on medium heat with fat in the pan before adding food, and let protein release on its own before turning it.
    • Remove heat tint or mineral spots with a stainless steel cleanser such as Bar Keepers Friend.
