Vida by PADERNO Elite Series 3-Layer Frying Pan, Dishwasher & Oven Safe, Stainless Steel Reviews
#1 in Cookware

Description


The Vida Elite Series Clad Frypan provides a surround-heat tri-ply construction comprising of a stainless-steel interior which is non-reactive to food, an aluminium core for even heat distribution and a magnetic stainless-steel exterior which is suitable for all cooktops.

• 3- layer clad construction provides even and fast heating
• 18/10 stainless steel interior is non-reactive to food.
• Aluminium core provides even heat distribution and retention.
• Rolled edges for mess-free pouring.
• 28cm (11”)
• Oven safe up to 500 degrees F/ 260 degrees C
• Compatible with electric, gas, ceramic, halogen, and induction cooktops

NOTE: Clad cookware preheats at a different rate than other types of cookware which in turn can cause food to stick more. Before adding any oil, we recommend preheating the pan over medium heat. It is also necessary to add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan so that it can act as a barrier between the pan and the food. Adding food to cold oil may also lead to sticking since the temperature of the pan will drop too quickly from the addition of the cold oil and cold food. For this reason, advocates should let the oil heat up until it starts to swirl around the pan loosely.

    Great pan for household use!

    After seasoning the pan to be non stick, I made eggs and potatoes on it and it worked great! Not even one thing stuck on the pan. I would definitely recommend this pan for household use.

    Fantastic kitchenware

    Thank you so much for sending this awesome 11 inch stainless steel PADERNO Elite Series 3-Layer Frying Pan. I was so excited to use this pan and thought to cook pasta with sautéed veggies.

    Pros:
    Easy to use and great for sautéing
    Very lightweight and very easy to work with it due to its smart design
    Great for searing and excellent heat retention
    Easy to maneuver and very comfortable to hold

    Cons
    I couldn’t find any


    This is a perfectly sized pan to be used in the home kitchens. That’s enough space to get the entire food cooked without getting it overcrowded. This pan is oven-safe up to 500 deg F, dishwasher safe and it suitable for use on all types of stovetops , including induction.

    I always prefer to use stainless steel pans and pots in my kitchen. I am very happy with this product and highly recommend it. 👍

    Exceptional Performance and Durability

    I was recently chosen for the Vida by Paderno Stainless Steel Clad Frying Pan campaign on Butterly and I must say that it has surpassed all my expectations. As an avid home cook/baker, I depend on high-quality cookware that can withstand daily use while delivering outstanding performance. In this review, I will share my experience with the Vida frying pan and explain why I know it will become an indispensable tool in my kitchen and hopefully yours too!
    While unboxing my new frying pan I couldn't help but notice its sleek and elegant design. The stainless steel gives it a modern, professional look. The handle provides a comfortable grip, making it easy to manoeuvre even when its on the stove. The handle stays cool so you need not worry about burning yourself. The construction of the pan feels robust and I can tell it is going to stay in great shape for a long time.
    When it comes to cooking performance, this is where the Vida frying pan truly shines. The stainless steel cladding ensures even heat distribution, allowing for precise cooking at any temperature. Whether I'm making french toast (which I highly recommend in this pan), baking a skillet cookie pie or frying eggs, the results are consistently excellent. I really adore the even heat distribution that prevents hot spots, a common problem with my usual cookware.
    Although The Vida frying pan is not advertised as non-stick, I was pleasantly surprised by its natural non-stick capabilities. With just a touch of oil, I found that most foods release effortlessly, and cleanup is a easy peasy. I just boil some water and add a drop of dish soap if I need an extra cleaning boost.
    In conclusion, the Vida by Paderno Stainless Steel Clad Frying Pan is an unmatched addition to any kitchen. Its superior performance and versatility make it a smart investment for home cooks and professionals alike. Whether you're a beginner or a chef, this pan will elevate your cooking experience. I highly recommend the Vida frying pan and will say that it has earned its place as my go-to cookware for many, many years to come.

    High quality stainless steel

    This is such an elegant and sleek pan to add to my cooking pans. You just have to make sure you use wooden or soft plastic utensils otherwise just like many other pans it will scratch. Everything slide off so smoothly. I put water in it and was able to "dry" it by just letting the water run off. Really impressive!

    Great for everyday use + oven & dishwasher safe

    I received this product to try in exchange for my honest review. I've been wanting to get a new frypan for a really long time. The nonstick frypans I own are beginning to warp so this frypan came at the perfect time. Using the fry pan was fairly easy. I heated the pan on my gas stove on medium heat before adding olive oil. Once the oil was heated I added an egg for a quick and easy breakfast. There was no sticking and it slid right off the pan giving me a perfect fried egg. I love that the pan has a stainless steel handle so I can place the pan in the oven as well for one pan meals. The wide 11" diameter also allows for easy mixing without excess spillage on the sides. I do wish that it came with a matching lid for steaming. Overall, the clad frypan is easy to use and clean as it is dishwasher safe. I would definitely recommend this product to others.

    Nice even cooking

    This pan was something different for us. We typically use cast iron or non-stick coated. Followed the instructions as prescribed and this pan was great. It seemed to heat up a bit slower than the thinner aluminum pans we are accustomed to but it heated up evenly. We tried cooking some chopped up chicken in it first. Chicken cooked all the way out to the edge of the pan and didn't require constant stirring and agitating to ensure it all was cooked properly. The nice part with this pan as it seems a tad more resistant to the warping issues thinner aluminum pans suffer from so I was able to cook the chicken on a higher temp. We used a generous layer of oil in the bottom of the pan so nothing stuck to the pan. When we were done, cleaning was easy. A nice wipe with some warm soapy water seemed to get everything out. Tried eggs next. Again used a good layer of oil in the pan. Pan heated up nicely. Eggs took only a few minutes to cook to desired level. I'll admit the eggs did stick a bit but that is more than likely my fault for having the pan temperature a little too high. Even though there was a little egg stuck in the pan, once it cooled down I gave it a wash in warm soapy water and everything came right out. So far this pan has been great for us. Delivering consistent temps across the cooking surfacing, not warping and easy clean up. I would definitely buy more of these pans in other sizes. Thanks Paderno!

    Best pan ever!

    This pan wowed me. It completely elevated my cooking experience and is now my go to pan to cook with. i am obsessed!
    It brings out the flavor and aroma of everything you put in it. It is proffessional high quality. The price is a bit much for small budgets for a single pan but it is most definitely worth it by far. Your food cooks evenly and perfectly, cleaning is so easy and its very durable. I feel like a real chef using it. 100% recommend
