Tefal’s lighter induction pans change colour when they reach the right temperature

Tefal has just launched its lightest induction pan collection, cleverly called the So Light range. Featuring four frying pan sizes and a wok, Tefal’s So Light pans are backed with lighter materials and Thermal and Light Tech technology that change colour when they reach the right temperatures.

Tefal is well known for its non-stick cookware, and now, the brand has debuted its lightest range yet which is 43% lighter than Tefal’s Unlimited pan collection. The design of the new pans are lightweight, durable and feature ergonomic handles to make them easier to hold, flip and move.

Using Light Tech technology, the Tefal So Light pans are compatible with all stovetops, including induction hobs, offering rapid heating for super fast cooking times. But the real standout feature of the new Tefal So Light range is the brand’s Thermo-Signal technology.

The Tefal So Light pans have a Thermo-signal heat indicator that changes colour when the pan reaches the ideal cooking temperature. It shows this via the red circle at the centre of the pan which shifts from a bright red to a darker red. Not only does this indicate that your pan is hot enough to use, but it’s also particularly helpful for searing and frying different foods, like steak and other meats.

As the lightest pan collection to date, Tefal is definitely appealing to more chefs and kitchens. I always have trouble finding pans that work with my induction hob so it’s great that the So Light collection caters to all cooking stoves.

Within the Tefal So Light range are four different frying pan sizes – 22cm, 24cm, 28cm and 30cm, and a 28cm wok. The collection is available exclusively at John Lewis, with prices starting at £32.50.
