Expert Review and  Insights

You can tell a lot about a kitchen by its GN pans, and  this Modena model is a good sign. It’s one of those bits of kit that often gets overlooked, but having a reliable, well-made perforated pan makes a huge difference to daily prep.

  • Top-Notch Drainage: The hole pattern is excellent for quickly draining pasta or fried items.
  • A Little Noisy: Being all metal, it can be a bit clattery when stacking.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Old Mill Inn in Aberystwyth needed a better way to handle their Sunday carvery vegetable prep. Their solid pans were leaving steamed veg waterlogged and  unappetising by the time they hit the service counter.

"We switched to these Modena perforated pans and  the difference was instant. The veg drains as it sits in the bain-marie, so it stays vibrant and  fresh. Our customers have even commented on the improvement! It’s a simple change that has had a big impact."

Robert Davies – Head Chef

The inn now reports significantly less food waste from their vegetable station and  improved overall presentation.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Give the pan a thorough wash with warm, soapy water before its first use to remove any manufacturing residues.
  • As a standard 1/1 GN pan, it will slot directly into any compatible oven, trolley, or bain-marie rack without any adjustment.
  • Always check that the pan is seated securely in its rack or counter cutout before filling with hot food.

Keeping It Going

  • For best results, rinse or soak the pan immediately after use to prevent food from drying onto the perforations.
  • It's dishwasher safe, but for stubborn grime, use a non-abrasive scouring pad to protect the stainless steel finish.
  • Stack carefully using the anti-jam lugs to prevent them from getting stuck together and  to avoid scratching.
  • Periodically check for any dents or warping, especially if it's used frequently in very high-temperature ovens.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gastronorm Pan

Not sure what to look for? Picking the right GN pan can make a surprising difference to your kitchen's efficiency. Here are a few tips to help you choose.

Size It Up Correctly

GN sizing is a universal standard. '1/1' is the base size (530x325mm), with '1/2', '1/3', etc., being fractions of that. Check your equipment to ensure you're buying the right fit.

Depth Matters

Pans come in depths from 20mm to 200mm. Use shallow pans (20-65mm) for single portions or searing, and  deep pans (100mm+) for bulk storage, soups, and  sauces.

Solid or Perforated?

It's simple: if you need to hold liquid (sauces, stews), use a solid pan. If you need to steam, drain, or rinse, a perforated pan is essential.

Material World

Stainless steel is the all-rounder for cooking and  hot-holding. Polycarbonate is great for cold storage and  food prep as it's lightweight and  often clear.

Stacking Features

Look for 'anti-jam' lugs on the corners. This small feature is a lifesaver, preventing pans from creating a vacuum and  getting stuck together when stacked.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this pan dishwasher safe?

A: Yes, it is made from stainless steel and  is perfectly safe to be cleaned in a commercial dishwasher.

Q: Can I use this pan in the oven?

A: Absolutely. Stainless steel gastronorm pans are designed to withstand high temperatures in commercial ovens.

Q: What does '1/1 gastronorm' actually mean?

A: It refers to the standard 'full' size of a gastronorm container, which measures 530 x 325 mm. All other GN sizes (1/2, 1/3, etc.) are fractions of this.

A: Yes, stainless steel is suitable for both high heat and  extreme cold, making it ideal for freezing and  blast chilling.

A: They are primarily used for tasks where liquid needs to escape, such as steaming vegetables, draining fried food, rinsing salads, or holding boiled items on a buffet.

Q: Can I stack this with pans from other brands?

A: As long as the other pans adhere to standard GN sizing and  have similar anti-jam features, they should stack together without issue.

Q: How big are the holes in the pan?

A: The perforations are designed to be small enough to hold most food items (like peas or chopped veg) while allowing water and  steam to pass through freely.

Q: Is the steel food-grade?

A: Yes, all Modena gastronorm pans are made from high-quality, food-grade stainless steel suitable for professional kitchen use.

More Than Just Holes: Why Perforations Are a Chef's Best Friend

Ever wondered why a simple perforated pan is so crucial in a pro kitchen? It’s all about controlling moisture. When you're steaming, the perforations allow hot steam to circulate completely around the food, cooking it more evenly and  quickly than in a solid pan where it can only cook from the top. Then, once cooked, those same holes let all the excess water or fat drain away instantly.

Think of it like giving your food its own personal colander that can also go straight in the oven. It's the secret to fluffy steamed rice, crisp (not soggy) vegetables, and  perfectly drained fried chicken. A solid pan just holds food; this stainless steel GN 1/1 perforated pan actively works to improve its texture and  quality from the moment you start cooking to the second you serve it.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Busy Restaurants & Pubs: An absolute essential for steaming fresh vegetables in bulk or draining fried foods efficiently before plating.
  • Mobile & Event Caterers: Lightweight, stackable, and  universally compatible, making it perfect for preparing and  serving food off-site.
  • Fish & Chip Shops: Ideal for holding and  draining fried fish or chips straight from the fryer, keeping them crisp.
  • Hotel Buffet Services: Perfect for holding items like boiled eggs, steamed seafood, or blanched greens on a self-service line.
