The ceramic inner surface of the pan is a type of non-stick coating that prevents food from sticking during cooking. It is based on natural mineral materials, most often silicon-based, which is extracted from sand. Unlike some other non-stick surfaces, it does not contain synthetic polymer compounds such as PFOA or PTFE. This property allows food to be prepared using a minimum amount of fat and facilitates subsequent cleaning. The surface is characterised by its high hardness and scratch resistance, yet it is recommended to use wooden or silicone utensils to protect it. The ceramic coating can withstand high temperatures, making it suitable for searing meat without the risk of releasing harmful substances. To maintain the durability of the non-stick properties, it is advisable to avoid sudden temperature changes, such as pouring cold water on a hot pan.
