The square Sac Kavurma Tava (42×27 cm) is a modern variation on the traditional round sac. Thanks to its rectangular shape, you make the most of the surface area of a standard barbecue or rectangular cooker. It is the perfect bridge between a traditional Turkish casserole and a modern grill plate (plancha).
Here are the key details about this particular pan:
Features of Square Sac Tava
-
Size (42×27 cm): This is a very spacious surface. The rectangular shape allows more space to keep ingredients separate, for example meat on one side and vegetables on the other.
-
Shape and Depth: Although it looks flatter than the round version, it usually has a slight undulation towards the centre or raised edges to keep juices and oil inboard.
-
Material: Usually made of enamelled steel or sheet steel. This ensures fast heat conduction, which is essential for searing meat at high temperatures.
-
Handles: Often fitted with two sturdy handles on the short sides for good balance when moving.
