A wide, two-handled pan for one-pot dinners, braises, a pot of chili or a whole roast chicken. It comes with a stainless steel lid. No coating to wear off.
Five layers, all the way up the sides: three layers of aluminum sealed between polished 18/10 stainless steel inside and 18/0 stainless outside. Food only touches the 18/10 steel, and no aluminum is exposed anywhere on the pan.
The rounded inside makes stirring and whisking easy, and measuring marks on the inside wall save a cup. Two solid stainless side handles sit on stainless rivets. It works on induction, gas, electric, halogen and ceramic, goes in the oven or under the broiler up to 550 F, and can go in the dishwasher.
