Cuisinart GreenGourmet Hard-Anodized Nonstick Grill Pan

Cuisinart began producing professional cookware inspired by the great French kitchens over 35 years ago. Their GreenGourmet Hard-Anodized cookware continues this tradition of excellence, using the finest materials to perfect classic cooking techniques. Today, more and more home cooks are choosing to go green, and Cuisinart is following suit with their environmentally friendly cookware. The GreenGourmet line features an exclusive Cuisinart Ceramica nonstick surface, which is ceramic-based and petroleum-free. This coating is applied at a lower temperature compared to traditional nonsticks, without containing PTFE and PFOA, potentially harmful substances often found in nonstick cookware.

Manufacturing techniques were utilized to reduce carbon emissions and energy consumption, with the water-based coating being scratch-resistant and FDA and European RoHS compliant. To further showcase their eco-friendly approach, Cuisinart packages the cookware in 100 percent recycled materials printed with biodegradable soy ink. The superior heat conductivity of the hard anodized aluminum ensures quick and even distribution, requiring less energy. The hard exterior is nonporous and wear-resistant, while the 70 percent recycled stainless-steel handle remains cool to the touch and oven safe up to 500 degrees F.

To maintain the appearance and performance of your Cuisinart GreenGourmet cookware, it is recommended to hand wash with a mild detergent and use plastic or wooden utensils. Avoidance of sharp utensils and abrasive cleaning is advised to preserve the Cuisinart Ceramica coating. Slight surface marks are normal and do not affect performance. With proper care, your cookware will provide great performance for years to come. Seasoning the pans twice a year with vegetable oil helps to maintain optimal performance.

Overall, Cuisinart's GreenGourmet cookware offers a combination of professional performance and eco-friendliness. The attention to detail in both manufacturing and care instructions ensures that these pans will continue to be a staple in kitchens for years to come.
