Cookware
The new cast iron grill pan with panini press is designed with raised ridges across the entire pan, delivering similar results to that of an outdoor grill. The panini press insert features raised ridges underneath for simultaneously producing grill marks on both sides of foods, such as meats and sandwiches. The 10" by 10" grill pan and panini press will be available in the coming months in Almond Cream, Empire Red and Onyx Black at a suggested retail price of $199.99.
Also soon to be available is the new wok and steamer insert, as part of the Tri-Ply Stainless Steel cookware collection. The wok is 13" in diameter and can produce a sizeable stir-fry dish, or can double as a deep fryer. The steamer insert acts as a double boiler inside the wok for gently steaming seafood, dumplings and other foods. Suggested retail price for the wok is $199.99; suggested retail price for the separate steamer insert is $112.99.
