The Spanish pan manufacturer BRA does not stitch without thread, and when it takes out a new pan it does so with all the guarantees of success. Aware that the public is increasingly demanding, we have prepared a frying pan that more than meets the most demanding standards. These Professional BRAs are the best of the firm and in this article we will see why and if it is worth it.
We remind you that an expensive product is not always the most advisable or the best. We must take into account many factors before buying a frying pan, such as how we are going to use it or how careful we are.
This BRA Professional frying pan is aimed at a demanding public that is going to give it intensive use. It is manufactured in Spain, which in itself is a guarantee of quality. We are not saying that the pans that come from China are bad, but the quality standards of the European Union are strict, and we like it. Its price? Let’s see it.
MATERIALS
BRA is a firm that has chosen aluminum for the construction of the vast majority of its pans. Aluminum is a lightweight and cheaper material than stainless steel, which justifies that decision. However, for this BRA Professional frying pan they have opted for the best material, sparing nothing: stainless steel. And not just any stainless steel, but they have taken good care of it. It is 18/10 stainless steel with a flawless gloss polished finish.
This gives this new frying pan qualities that stand out above the average. For one thing, it’s a super sturdy skillet. Stainless steel withstands scratches, bumps and ages really well. And on the other hand, it is an absolutely harmless material for health ; Unlike aluminum, whose contact with food can be harmful, stainless steel is stable and does not transfer to food.
However, and to avoid creating an alarm, in aluminum pans, aluminum is not in contact with food unless the non-stick coating is damaged.
In return, stainless steel is slightly heavier than aluminum. Although in particular, this BRA Professional frying pan in its 26-centimeter version weighs about 2 kg, which is not that much either.
COMPATIBILITY
As for its compatibility, it is one of its strengths. This pan made in Spain is compatible with everything we can imagine. The BRA Professional frying pan can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher. It is also fully compatible with all types of cookers: induction, gas, glass-ceramic or electric.
And the best, it can be put in the oven. It is a great advantage to be able to start or finish a recipe by putting the pan directly in the oven to gratin or give a final touch to our dish. One point for BRA.
ANTI-ADHERENCE
In this sense, BRA always entrusts its anti-adherence to the manufacturer of this type of surface par excellence: Teflon. As we know, there are different qualities: Classic, Select, Platinum Plus and Professional. In this case, the firm has chosen the Platinum Plus finish for its BRA Professional pans . This is the same as for its high-end aluminum ( BRA Efficient ).
The Platinum Plus has, in our experience, an outstanding non-stick and a very remarkable resistance to bumps and scratches. Damaging a skillet with a non-stick surface of this quality is possible, but very difficult. Impossible, we would say, if you are careful to use wooden or silicone utensils instead of metal ones. And of course, avoid sticking the knife directly into the pan!
By following these little guidelines, this BRA Professional frying pan can last you half a life.
And in terms of health, the fact that it is manufactured within the European Union (Spain), gives us total peace of mind. It is free of toxic substances like PFOAS and PTFE.
