All-Clad E414S564 Stainless Steel Steamer Cookware, 5-Quart, Silver

Too small for family cooking. Constantly overflowing when at boiling point.

We're an All Clad family and purchased this based on the brand and the size. We are LOVING this pot. It's just big enough for pasta for 4 without us having to use our giant stock pot & strainer. We also use it for small batches of soup and chili when we aren't cooking for company or leftovers. AND...with the smaller size you can keep it with your other pots and pans (even sharing lids with some other All Clad pieces). With our larger stock pot / strainer we have to keep it in a high (out of the way) cupboard and it's a pain to get out. This is the "just right" size!! The steel is a tiny bit thinner than that of our regular All Clad kitchenware, but it WORKS GREAT. Note that the base is bottom of the pot is an applied disc that ABSOLUTELY IS INDUCTION COMPATIBLE. The heavy magnetic base is PERMANENTLY attached and is key with this set. The walls of the pot are not as thick as your normal All Clad pots (they're not "clad"), but who cares!?!? Honestly, it's great that the bottom is heavy, but the pot is a bit lighter! This pot works great and has all of the GREAT looks and SUPERIOR cooking quality of our other All Clad pieces. Don't be scared off by the low price...This Pasta Pot is WONDERFUL!!! Winner Winner, PASTA DINNER!!

Tamaño perfecto, súper útil

A versatile pot at 5 quart capacity. Solid All-Clad construction, and excellent All-Clad performance. One of my go-to workhorses, especially when cooking for one or two. A perfect steamer. Great for soups, stews, curries, and one pot meals. Excellent for just about any noodle, e.g., rice, mung, sweet potato, buckwheat or wheat. With the aluminum ply base and curved body, water boils quickly. It has a nice response too. Excellent for steaming eggs instead of hard-boiling them. This pot steams 15 large eggs easily, with all eggs on their side in the basket. If stacked, then a couple dozen or more. Steams 15 eggs in 12 minutes for a soft non-runny yolk, 15 to 17 minutes for firmer yolk (your mileage and personal preference may vary). Bring water to a boil, place the basket with eggs in the pot, cover, steam for desired consistency, flash chill in cool water if desired or let them stand and cool slowly. Stainless steel construction, it cleans easily and buffs to a mirror finish with a soft cloth. A very light coat of cooking spray or oil wiped down with a cotton, microfiber or paper towel prevents spotting after washing and drying, and helps preserve the finish and rust resistance. Well worth the expense.
