FusionPlus Hybrid Stainless Steel Pan

The Cuisinart FusionPlus Hybrid Stainless Steel 12 Inch Skillet with Helper Handle is designed for large-capacity cooking—from searing multiple proteins to simmering sauces and finishing dishes in the oven. The helper handle provides added stability for lifting and transferring. FusionPlus features PFAS-free* PurelySear technology, a hybrid cooking surface with raised stainless steel peaks and ceramic valleys. Food cooks on stainless steel for effective searing, caramelization, and fond development, while the ceramic valleys help support easier release and simplify cleanup. For best performance, use FusionPlus cookware like stainless steel cookware. Preheat the pan over medium-low to medium heat for about 2 minutes, add oil or butter, allow it to warm, then add food. Proper preheating improves release, supports even browning, and helps prevent sticking. Delicate foods like eggs benefit from preheating and the use of oil or butter. An aluminum core encapsulated in stainless steel through the base provides fast, even heat. The cast stainless steel Cool Grip handle with V-flange design stays comfortable on the stovetop, while the riveted helper handle supports controlled two-hand lifting—especially useful when moving a full pan from stovetop to oven. Compatible with gas, electric, glass-top, and induction stovetops. Oven safe to 500°F. Dishwasher safe for convenient cleanup, though hand washing helps maintain the finish over time. From searing to simmering to oven finishing, FusionPlus is built for the cooking techniques that develop flavor across larger meals and shared dishes. *No intentionally added PFAS
