Le Parfait induction jam pan: the perfect ally for homemade jams

There are some gestures that never change. When the season of sun-drenched fruits arrives, taking out your jam pan remains a ritual that has stood the test of time. At Le Parfait , an iconic brand of homemade preserves, the pans are designed to last, to reveal all the flavors of the fruits and to accompany you in your most delicious recipes.

Why use a jam pan?

Unlike a simple saucepan, the jam pan has a very specific role:

• A large evaporation surface : the flared shape allows water to evaporate quickly, guaranteeing a smooth and tasty jam.

• Even cooking : the thick base distributes the heat and prevents the sugar from caramelizing too quickly.

• A dedicated and practical tool : its solid handles and generous capacity make it an ideal companion for preparing large quantities.

Copper or aluminum: which material should you choose for your jam pan?

At Amphitria, we offer copper and aluminum jam pans Le Parfait, Le Pratique, de Buyer and Baumalu , two options with their advantages:

• Copper: the purists' choice

  • Excellent heat conduction, for fast and precise cooking.

  • Limits the risk of overcooking and allows for a beautiful color of the fruit.

  • Traditional, durable and elegant in your kitchen.

• Aluminum: practical and light

  • Lighter than copper, ideal for handling large quantities.

  • Good heat diffusion.
