Professional Tilting Pan: Complete Guide

The professional tilting pan (also called tilting frying pan or tilting braising pan) is an essential piece of equipment for collective kitchens, restaurants, and catering services. It allows you to cook, braise, sear, and keep large quantities of food warm quickly and efficiently.

What is a professional tilting pan?

The tilting pan is a wide, shallow tank mounted on a frame with a tilting mechanism that makes it easy to empty preparations. It comes in electric or gas versions, with manual or automatic controls, and capacities adapted to professional needs.

How it works and uses

The tank heats evenly via a resistance (electric) or a burner (gas). Tilting makes serving and cleaning easier. Common uses include:

  • Preparation of sauces, stews, and casseroles
  • Quick sautéing and cooking of large volumes
  • Keeping dishes warm and finishing cooking
  • Slow reduction or sous-vide cooking

Main advantages

  • Time saving: large cooking surface and high capacity.
  • Versatility: searing, simmering, cooking, and holding at temperature.
  • Safety and ergonomics: easy emptying with less effort for staff.
  • Precise control: thermostats and regulators for consistent results.

Selection criteria

When choosing a tilting pan, consider the following:

  1. Capacity: according to the number of meals / daily production volume.
  2. Energy source: electric (precision) or gas (power).
  3. Material: stainless steel for durability and hygiene.
  4. Tilting system: manual, assisted, or electric.
  5. Safety: thermostats, safety switches, locking devices.
  6. Options: timer, lid, mobile frame, baskets.

Cleaning and maintenance

  • Clean after each use with a non-abrasive food-grade detergent.
  • Check and grease pivots and seals according to manufacturer recommendations.
  • Descale if necessary (hard water for electric versions).
  • Perform regular checks of safety devices and heating elements.

Best practices

Before tilting, make sure the receiving container is ready and staff are trained. Do not overload the tank and always use suitable utensils to preserve the surface.
