The Pujadas Ø350 aluminium casserole is a straightforward, robust cooking vessel from the Century Aluminium range, designed for the demands of professional kitchen service. Made from pure aluminium sheet, it is built to handle daily use across a range of cooking tasks — braising, sauces, stocks, and batch cooking — where consistent heat spread matters more than novelty.

Aluminium conducts heat quickly and evenly across the base and sides, which helps reduce the energy and time required to bring large volumes up to temperature. The extra-thick base is a practical detail: it resists warping under sustained heat and maintains full, flat contact with the heat source, which matters on both gas and solid-top ranges where an uneven base causes hot spots and inconsistent results.

A few features are worth noting for busy kitchen conditions:

  • Thick-gauge construction resists impact and deformation from regular handling
  • Tubular stainless steel handles are heat-insulating, reducing burn risk during service
  • Four rivets per handle provide a secure, long-lasting attachment under heavy use
  • Pure aluminium construction makes the pan relatively lightweight for its size
  • No lid included — suited to open cooking, reduction work, or where a universal lid is already in use

As with all aluminium cookware, it is not suitable for induction hobs without an induction base adaptor. It is also worth noting that aluminium can react with highly acidic ingredients over prolonged cooking — something to bear in mind depending on your menu.

This casserole is well suited to busy prep and service kitchens in restaurants, hotels, and contract catering operations where a reliable, no-fuss workhorse pan is needed at this diameter. For operations requiring significantly larger batch volumes, a broader or deeper vessel from the same range may be worth considering.

If you are unsure whether this size fits your service volumes or kitchen setup, our team is happy to talk it through.

Frequently asked questions

Is this casserole suitable for use on induction hobs?

No — aluminium is not induction-compatible without a separate induction base adaptor. This pan is suited to gas, electric solid-top, and conventional electric hob surfaces. If induction compatibility is a requirement, it is worth discussing alternative cookware materials with us.

Can this casserole be used for acidic dishes such as tomato-based sauces?

Aluminium can react with highly acidic ingredients over prolonged cooking times, which may affect flavour and, over time, the surface of the pan. For occasional short-cook acidic dishes it is generally fine, but for regular, long-duration acidic cooking, a stainless steel vessel may be a more practical choice.

What type of kitchen operation is the Ø350 size best suited to?

The 350mm diameter makes this a practical mid-to-large service pan for restaurants, hotels, and contract catering kitchens preparing sauces, stocks, or braised dishes in moderate batch volumes. For significantly larger batch cooking — such as high-volume banqueting or central production kitchens — a deeper or wider vessel from the same range may better suit your throughput needs.
