Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Old Forge, a popular village pub in Knutsford, Cheshire, wanted to move away from standard white ramekins to something with more character for their signature side dishes. They needed a solution that was tough enough for a busy service but also matched their rustic, cosy interior.

"These Churchill pans have been a fantastic addition. They hold the heat right to the table, and  our customers constantly comment on how great the food looks. They just feel like quality, and  they've survived our hectic kitchen without a single chip."

Robert Davies – Head Chef

Since introducing the pans, the pub has noted a significant increase in positive online reviews mentioning food presentation and  a 20% uplift in sales of their premium side dishes.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, inspect each pan for any damage that may have occurred in transit.
  • Give them a thorough wash with warm, soapy water before their first use to remove any dust.
  • These pans are ready to use straight away in the oven, microwave, or freezer.
  • Brief your team on using oven gloves, as the integrated handles will get very hot.

Keeping It Going

  • The pans are dishwasher safe for easy and  hygienic cleaning.
  • To avoid thermal shock, don't take a pan from the freezer and  put it straight into a hot oven.
  • For stubborn baked-on food, soak in warm water rather than using harsh metal scourers.
  • Stack carefully, using felt protectors between pans if possible, to prolong their pristine finish.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Oven-to-Tableware

Not sure what fits best? Finding the right oven-to-tableware can transform your service. Here are a few quick tips to help you decide.

Consider Portion Size

Make sure the capacity matches your menu. This 370ml pan is perfect for generous sides, starters, or individual desserts.

Check Temperature Ratings

Ensure the product is certified safe for your specific equipment. This pan is safe for commercial ovens, microwaves, and  freezers.

Match Your Brand Aesthetic

The style of your tableware should complement your restaurant's décor. The Rustics range is ideal for cosy, authentic, or farm-to-table concepts.

Think About Storage

Space is always a premium in a professional kitchen. Consider how well items stack and  if they will fit in your existing storage areas.

Prioritise Easy Cleaning

Look for dishwasher-safe items to save precious time and  labour. Vitrified porcelain is non-porous and  cleans up beautifully.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use this skillet pan on a direct heat source like a gas or electric hob?

A: No, this pan is designed for use in ovens, microwaves, and  for serving. It is not suitable for direct hob use.

Q: Is the handle also oven-proof?

A: Yes, the entire pan, including the handle, is made from a single piece of vitrified porcelain and  is completely oven safe.

Q: Will the colour fade after many cycles in the dishwasher?

A: No, the 'Super Vitrified' body and  high-resistance glaze are designed to withstand the rigours of commercial dishwashing without fading.

Q: What is the main benefit of 'vitrified' porcelain?

A: Vitrification makes the pan extremely strong, chip-resistant, and  non-porous, so it won't absorb moisture or food odours.

Q: Can I use metal utensils like knives and  forks in the pan?

A: While the glaze is very durable, it's best to avoid repeated use of sharp metal utensils to prevent scratching over the long term.

Q: Do these pans stack for storage?

A: Yes, they can be stacked. For best results and  to prevent any chance of chipping, we recommend using felt pan protectors between each one.

Q: Is the bottom of the pan glazed?

A: The very bottom rim is typically an unglazed, dry foot, which is standard for kiln-fired ceramics to prevent them from sticking during firing.

Q: How well does it retain heat?

A: Excellently. The thick, vitrified porcelain body has fantastic thermal retention properties, keeping food hot from the pass to the table.

What Does 'Vitrified' Actually Mean for Your Kitchen?

Ever wondered what the 'vitrified' bit actually means? Think of it as giving the porcelain a superhero shield. During manufacturing, the pan is fired at an incredibly high temperature, which causes the clay particles to melt and  fuse together into a non-porous, glass-like state. For you, this means it doesn't absorb water, flavours, or odours from food. So, your garlic prawns won't make tomorrow's apple crumble taste funky. More importantly, it makes the Churchill DL390 small skillet pan much, much tougher and  more resistant to the chips and  cracks that plague standard ceramics in a busy commercial kitchen.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Gastropubs: Perfect for serving up premium, sizzling sides like loaded fries, patatas bravas, or macaroni cheese.
  • Bistros & Restaurants: An elegant solution for individual baked dishes like shakshuka, gratins, or shepherd's pie.
  • Trendy Cafés: Ideal for upgrading your brunch menu with baked eggs or serving single-portion hot desserts.
  • Tapas Bars: The perfect vessel for presenting authentic, hot tapas dishes straight from the oven to the table.
