This 18cm Blue Pro saucepan is an innovative and high functioning kitchen essential that will allow you to boil rice, vegetables and pasta, or create delicious sauces, all from the comfort of your own kitchen. The Blue Pro sauce pan has been manufactured from aluminium, and features an inventive 5-layer construction that not only allows the heat to conduct quicker, but will also retain the heat for longer throughout the boiling process, allowing for the perfect outcome to your foods and sauces every time. The saucepan also features a blue coloured high-shine coating, that both adds to the overall robustness of the pan, as well as giving it its non-stick and anti-scratch properties. The saucepan comes complete with a tempered glass lid that allows you to keep all the heat inside the pot when cooking, as well as letting you keep an eye on proceedings at the same time, ensuring nothing boils over or spoils on the hob. The non-stick pan is suitable to be used in the oven, and can withstand temperatures of up to 220°C, making it a great option for those sauces that need some added heating time once the initial preparation is complete. The saucepan comes complete with a stainless steel handle, that is both ergonomic, and cool to touch, (apart from when being used in the oven), and features a hanging hole at the tip that allows you to hang up the pan if required so after use. This saucepot is like every Blackmoor pot and pan in the sense that it can be used on all hob types, such as gas, electric, induction, as well as on hotplates when cooking on the move.
