Fissler Alux Premium

MATERIALS

The Fissler Alux Premium frying pan is constructed of high-density forged aluminum. It differs at first glance from ordinary aluminum pans due to its thickness. While the usual thing is to find thin (and light) pans, this Alux Premium frying pan stands out for its robustness.

Its walls are thick and the pan seems indestructible. This has a disadvantage, and that is that its weight is slightly higher than a thinner pan, although in no case is it a drawback. It is still a very light pan. And the biggest advantage is its robustness. This skillet can withstand outside shocks and daily abuse without taking any damage. After all, the Fissler Alux Premium  is not a cheap frying pan and is built to last.

Inside we see something that is not at all common and is really practical. On one of the sides it has a content scale. This can be useful for those recipes that require some liquid (wine, cream, broth …)

The surface of the Alux Premium frying pan is completely smooth and does not have any interior rivets on either side. This is positive. In general, we do not like pans whose handle is attached to the pan with rivets; Having rivets on the inside of the pan makes it easier for dirt to accumulate and makes it difficult to clean. These Fissler Alux Premiums are completely smooth, so they are very easy to wash.

At the bottom of the pan we find a diffuser base compatible with all types of kitchens. In this way, these Alux Premium pans work perfectly in induction, glass-ceramic, gas and electric cookers . And of course, it’s dishwasher-safe.

ANTI-ADHERENCE

In the non-stick section, there is a particularity. Fissler is one of those manufacturers that, due to its extensive experience of almost 200 years, has been able to develop its own non-stick surface. It has the unique patent for Protectal Plus technology , which has outstanding non- stickiness.

Of all the manufacturers, few manufacturers have developed their own non-stick technologies. Two giants like Tefal and Fissler have been able to afford it.

This non-stick surface is PFOAS free and totally healthy. The fact that it is manufactured in Germany gives us the guarantee that it meets the strict regulations of the European Union in health matters, one of the most restrictive in the world.

SPECIAL FEATURES

• Made of high thickness pressed aluminum : the walls of this pan are thick and robust. It adds a few grams to the whole but in return it offers extraordinary resistance. In addition, it retains heat for longer, increasing energy efficiency.

And on their external face they have an enamel that prevents food from sticking on the outside if they jump out of the pan. It’s a high-end skillet and the details show through in these things.

YOU MAY BE INTERESTED

If you are looking for a high-end frying pan and this Fissler does not quite convince you, we advise you to value the Kuhn Rikon Silver Star frying pan . It is a stainless steel pan and a non-stick surface with Titanium. It is somewhat heavier than this Fissler but enjoys the benefits of stainless steel.

And finally, if you are looking for something cheaper, the Tefal Expertise is an extraordinarily balanced option. They are also aluminum pans, somewhat lighter and reinforced with Titanium. Its price is slightly lower.
