KitchenAid KCI10GPAC 25 cm beige

The American brand KitchenAid has existed since the late 19th century and has a strong position in the premium cookware market. The company's products are expensive, but the slogan "But how it's done!" fully reflects its philosophy and values.

At its best

The KCI10GPAC grill pan is made of cast iron and has an internal and external enamel coating that protects the iron alloy from corrosion. The outer enamel is available in red or beige. The inside of the pan is traditionally black. Also, the enamel prevents the cast iron from absorbing the smells of food, which is usually characteristic of it if the finished dish is overexposed in a container.

The pan has two steel handles — one long, standard shape, the other rectangular. They get hot, but you can put black silicone covers on them, in harmony with the inner surface, and take them freely, without sticking.

Effective accessory

The lid-press deserves special attention. It is square and corrugated, like the grill itself, but 5 cm smaller on each side (20x20 cm) and is made of enamelled steel, in the same colour as the main product.

Thanks to the press, hot panini sandwiches, fish and meat steaks, vegetables and even chicken are excellent in the pan. The lid provides the dish with uniform heating from all sides, a golden crust and a characteristic “striping”.

Universal application

The KitchenAid KCI10GPAC is suitable for all types of stovetops as well as ovens and is dishwasher safe. But, it is not recommended to use metal spatulas and spoons with it, so as not to damage the enamel. Well, butter is better, of course, at least add a little. To taste better and last longer. Although not necessary.

In general, the KitchenAid KCI10GPAC is good in every sense. Everything in it is thought out for maximum user comfort and the best taste of the finished dish. Add here a stylish appearance and compactness, and now there are convincingly a lot of arguments in favor of buying this pan. If not for the main argument "against" — the price of $ 260. However, for a real chef, this is not an argument.
