The product is ideal for making sauces, cooking liquids, and reheating food. This lidded pan's smaller surface area and tall, straight sides allow it to hold heat and limit evaporation. Its rolled edges allow for drip-free pouring. As with all cookware from the sauce pan collection, this pan has bonded 5-Ply construction with a copper-and-aluminum core for rapid, even heating. Its stick-resistant, 18/10 stainless steel interior and long, comfortable handle will make this a durable, essential tool for your kitchen.
