Foldable Simmer Ring Heat Diffuser - Avanti

A simmer ring like this one spreads heat evenly across the base of a pot or pan, making it easier to hold a low, gentle simmer without scorching sauces, custards or slow-cooked casseroles. It sits between the cooktop and the cookware to soften and spread direct heat across the whole surface of the pan.

Made from durable tinplate, the diffuser works on both gas and electric cooktops and folds flat with its hinged handle for compact storage in a drawer rather than taking up cupboard space. Avanti's design spreads heat across the whole surface rather than leaving one hot spot, so food cooks through more evenly and is far less likely to catch or stick on the base of the pan.

• Evens out heat to prevent burning and scorching
• Suits both gas and electric cooktops
• Durable tinplate construction
• Folds flat with a hinged handle for compact storage

Useful for slow sauces, delicate custards and anything on the stovetop that needs a steady, low simmer.
