Triple-ply stainless steel cookware with an aluminum core for even heating, precise browning, and reliable control during cooking. Key benefits - Even heat distribution: Aluminum core sandwiched between two stainless steel layers spreads heat quickly and evenly to minimize hot spots and deliver consistent browning. - Durable, non-porous cooking surface: Stainless steel interior resists sticking and is safe for use with all utensils, making it easy to cook, stir, and clean without damaging the surface. - Oven-to-table design: Elegant brushed stainless steel exterior and polished reflective cooking surface look attractive for serving and help you monitor food as it cooks. - Clear tempered-glass lids: See food without lifting the lid. Lids are oven-safe so you can finish dishes in the oven or keep food warm until serving. - Self-basting domed lid: Internal points collect and redistribute condensation for continuous self-basting, keeping meats juicier and more flavorful. - Comfortable, cool-touch handles: Long brushed stainless steel handles stay cooler on the stovetop for safer, easier handling. Performance and compatibility - Ideal for searing and braising meats, browning ingredients for stews, and preparing soups and sauces. - Safe for use with metal, wood, and silicone utensils thanks to the hard, non-porous stainless steel cooking surface. - Designed for stovetop cooking and finishing dishes in the oven; also attractive enough to serve directly at the table. Practical use scenarios - Sear and braise a beef roast: Use the even heat for a uniform sear, add braising liquid, cover with the domed glass lid, and finish in the oven for tender results and continuous self-basting. - Brown meat for a hearty stew: Quickly brown diced beef across the reflective surface, deglaze the pan, then simmer covered to concentrate flavor. - Make and serve soup: Simmer stock and vegetables evenly, keep the lid on to retain heat, then bring the pot straight to the table for serving.
