Happy Call Korean Frying Pan

Can anyone tell me what does \"sealer\" or \"seal\" means?


Am trying to get the deep brown pan but need to clarify some doubts first.

Also, some sellers in gmart write things like \"Overheat may cause seal to fall out\". Something like that.

I am scared I may get a fake one as my mum, MIL, neighbors and myself all depending on me alone to get from a reliable source.

Thank you in advance

The ones sold at United Square basement and Isetan are authentic. Just go and buy there. No need to order online.

The sealer is the silicone tubing that seals the pan when closed. It needs to be replaced when the pan begins to leak everytime you turn it over the other side.

Yup the seal is also known as the gasket. The gasket itself costs S$8. The guy mentioned I need to change the gasket every 6months if I cook every day. Do not take it out from the groove to clean separately.


Don’t overheat the pan if it’s empty. I use medium heat coz high heat burns the food inside very quickly and the downside is, you cannot see if the food inside is cooked or not when it’s closed.

Just buy from Isetan (prices mentioned in a post above) or Mega Electronics (S$99 for the large jumbo one, with or without grill. No medium size here.). They are running out of stock for the standard size.

I saw that carrefour advertising it as well.

Yah, Carrefour selling only the standard size I think at $69 with free gasket. But heard that they have run out of stock.

Probably, she is using induction stove, aluminum is unusable on induction cooker, you can read the reason in page 101 in this thread
