A 16cm shallow casserole with induction-compatible base and fitted lid. Manufactured from stainless steel with heat distribution engineering for even cooking. Suitable for stovetop preparation in commercial kitchens, hotel prep areas, and small-batch catering operations.
Commercial Application
The shallow design allows rapid heat transfer for reduction sauces, braising small protein portions, and finishing vegetable preparations. Compact 16cm diameter fits standard single-burner workstations without occupying plating space. The fitted lid retains moisture during controlled simmering and reheating cycles.
Used during service for à la carte sauce preparation, side dish finishing, and individual portion control. The 16cm capacity handles 1–2 portion volumes without excess evaporation. Induction compatibility provides immediate temperature response for precise thermal control during busy service periods.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What grade of stainless steel is used in the casserole body?
A: The casserole is manufactured from food-grade stainless steel meeting CE hygiene standards. Specific alloy grade (304 or 430) is confirmed upon order. Material certification is available for compliance documentation.
Q: What is the load-bearing capacity for stacked storage?
A: The casserole is designed for single-unit stacking with lid in place. Maximum vertical load depends on handle design and lid fit. Not engineered for high-density racked storage under commercial conditions.
Q: Can the casserole be used on all induction hob types?
A: The base is compatible with standard residential and commercial induction hobs. Minimum 14cm induction zone is required for full base contact. Verify hob specifications if using high-output industrial induction equipment.
Q: Are replacement lids available separately?
A: Replacement lids and handle components are stocked for after-sales support. Contact TurcoBazaar with model number for availability and pricing. Lead time for non-inventory components is 2–4 weeks.
Q: Is the casserole dishwasher-safe for commercial machines?
A: The stainless steel construction withstands commercial dishwasher cycles at standard temperatures. Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh alkaline detergents. Hand-drying reduces water spotting on polished surfaces.
