Can you put saucepan in an oven?

Whether a saucepan can be put in the oven depends on the material it's made of.

* Saucepans made of metal other than aluminum or cast iron can be safely used in the oven.

* Aluminum saucepans can be used in the oven, but it's not recommended since aluminum can react with acidic foods and cause discoloration.

* Cast iron saucepans can be used in the oven, but they should not be used to cook acidic foods as the acid can damage the cast iron.

* Saucepans with plastic handles or knobs should not be used in the oven as the plastic can melt or warp.
