All-Clad Copper Core Stainless Steel Sauce Pan, 3 Quart

When it comes to the preparation of sauces, gravies, or other liquid-based foods, the saucepan emerges as the essential tool. Its high, straight sides lend themselves well to the frequent stirring or whisking required for making sauces, effectively limiting any potential spilling. Moreover, the smaller surface area of the saucepan helps to retain heat efficiently and minimize evaporation.

As part of the Copper Core collection, this saucepan boasts a unique construction that sets it apart. It features a thick copper core, sandwiched between two layers of aluminum and two layers of stainless steel. This innovative design makes the saucepan highly responsive to heat, ensuring even heat distribution, and creating an unmatched level of durability that will withstand the test of time.

For an added touch of elegance, the saucepan sports a polished surface with a starburst finish, and a cutout that showcases the lustrous copper core. With a capacity of 3 quarts, it is the perfect size for a variety of culinary tasks, from making sauces and heating liquids to cooking and reheating food in liquids.

To maintain the saucepan's pristine condition, it is recommended to wash it by hand with a soap and sponge, rather than placing it in the dishwasher. This bonded cookware, handcrafted in the USA at the Canonsburg, PA factory, is built to last a lifetime, never going out of style. The handles and handle loops, however, are manufactured in China.

One of the standout features of this saucepan is its high, straight sides, which provide excellent support for stirring and whisking, while the smaller surface area helps to retain heat and limit evaporation – making it an ideal choice for preparing sauces or heating liquids.

The 5-ply bonded construction, comprising stainless steel, aluminum, and a thick copper core, ensures fast and even heating, while also providing warp-free strength and exceptional responsiveness to temperature changes. The highly polished stainless-steel cooking surface offers superior stick resistance, making it easy to maintain, and the flared edges allow for drip-free pouring.

For added convenience and comfort, the saucepan features longer, riveted stainless-steel handles that are contoured for a secure grip, and are vented to stay cool. The matching stainless-steel lid completes the ensemble, providing a seamless and cohesive appearance.

This saucepan is compatible with all cooktop types, including induction, and is oven and broiler-safe up to 600°F. To avoid the formation of small white dots or pits, it is recommended to bring liquids to a boil or wait until the food starts to cook before adding salt.

In summary, the All-Clad Copper Core Saucepan is a versatile and high-quality kitchen essential, designed to provide exceptional performance, durability, and style for all your saucing, heating, and liquid-based cooking needs.
