Product detailed description

The cast-iron KITCHISIMO Maestro frying pan with a diameter of 28 cm is an ideal choice for preparing larger portions for the whole family or when cooking for several people. It easily handles steaks, chicken, sautéed vegetables and larger quantities of side dishes at once. The larger diameter is especially useful when you need enough space and do not want to overcrowd the ingredients. Each piece has enough room to sear, which significantly improves the result. Thanks to its solid cast-iron construction, the pan excellent at retaining heat and distributing it evenly across the entire surface , ensuring perfect searing without burning or loss of juiciness.

Another major advantage of cast iron is its long service life – with proper care, the pan will last for many years and is often passed down through generations. Over time, it also develops a naturally non-stick surface , which improves its performance with every use. The wooden handle provides a comfortable grip and gives the pan an elegant appearance suitable for both a modern kitchen and a country cottage. The KITCHISIMO Maestro cast-iron pan is pre-treated with vegetable oil and is heat-resistant up to 260°C.

Advice and tips

It is ideal to heat the cast-iron pan gradually before use so that the heat is distributed evenly. Thanks to its ability to retain heat, it is then not necessary to cook at maximum power, which helps achieve better results and save energy.

To preserve its excellent properties, we recommend not washing the pan with aggressive detergents , but rather cleaning it gently and lightly treating it with oil. This supports the formation of the natural non-stick layer that makes a cast-iron pan such an exceptional kitchen tool. It is better to clean the pan immediately after use; we do not recommend leaving it to soak. Heavy soiling can be removed by boiling water in the pan. After each wash, it is important to dry the pan thoroughly and lightly coat it with vegetable oil. 

Unlike ordinary pans made from lightweight materials, cast iron offers a completely different cooking experience. It retains heat for much longer and distributes it evenly , so food is not merely “seared” but truly cooked to perfection. Meat develops a beautiful crust, vegetables remain juicy and the flavour is more pronounced.

Another major advantage is its service life – while ordinary non-stick pans wear out over time, a cast-iron pan lasts for years with proper care and its properties improve instead. It gradually develops a natural non-stick layer , which works without chemical coatings. Cast iron is therefore an ideal choice for those who want to cook traditionally, for the long term and with maximum results. To increase protection and resistance against rusti, you can season the cast-iron pan. First clean and dry the pan thoroughly, apply a thin layer of vegetable oil or lard and then heat it on the cooker. The fat should smoke lightly. Repeat the oil application several times, always waiting until the previous layer has absorbed. Finally, wipe off the excess fat.  

When storing several pans on top of one another, we recommend placing a soft separator or a kitchen towel between them so that the individual surfaces do not scratch each other. For cooking, use wooden or silicone utensils, which protect the surface and are comfortable to handle.

The Kitchisimo  cookware collection includes, in addition to frying pans, a saucepan and casseroles in the same elegant design – together they form a beautiful and practical set that gives your kitchen a light, harmonious and natural style.

The Kitchisimo cast-iron pan is an ideal companion for anyone who prefers induction pans – its quality base ensures perfect contact with all types of hobs, so it heats up quickly and evenly without unnecessary energy losses. It works equally well with conventional gas, ceramic and electric cookers.

If you appreciate trouble-free operation and easy maintenance, we also recommend looking at the category of non-stick frying pans. There you will find a wide selection of models with various surfaces that make healthy cooking with minimal fat easier.

For a perfectly coordinated kitchen, it is also worth expanding your equipment with quality Kitchisimo cookware , which matches in appearance and material – elegant saucepans, pots and casseroles will create a stylish, functional set together with the Kitchisimo stainless-steel pan.

For even cooking, stewing and protecting food from splashing fat, you will also appreciate pan lids , which improve cooking efficiency and preserve the flavour and aroma of prepared dishes.

For safe handling, we also recommend practical kitchen oven mitts and trivets , which complement the overall appearance of your kitchen and make everyday work easier. And if you enjoy coffee or tea after a good meal, you will also appreciate our selection of stylish pots, mugs and serving accessories , which perfectly complement the pleasant atmosphere of dining at home.
