Overview
An aluminum disc fused between a stainless interior and a stainless exterior forms the base of this Contour saucepan. The encapsulated base spreads heat evenly, and a lid is included for simmering.
Stainless steel cooking surfaces do not react with food or alter natural flavors, and the bonded base is meant to remove hot spots. The pot is for small jobs, so batch cooking calls for something larger. Cooktop and oven details are absent.
Who it's for
Singles and couples who need a small pot for sauces, soups and sides will use the covered saucepan often. Families cooking larger batches, or cooks who want published cooktop compatibility, should look at bigger or better documented pots.
Pros and cons
- Bonded aluminum base spreads heat
- Stainless interior does not react with food
- Light enough to handle easily
- Small capacity limits batch cooking
- Cooktop and oven limits not listed
- Dishwasher care not specified
Performance notes
The aluminum disc in the base conducts heat quickly and the stainless layers around it protect it, which is what evens out the heat and removes hot spots. A stainless cooking surface does not react with acidic or delicate foods, so flavors stay as cooked.
