This 2.5 qt. sauce pan combines food grade stainless steel with an aluminum core and outer 18/0 stainless steel in a permanent tri-ply bond, moving heat along the bottom and up the sidewall for fast, even cooking performance. Thicker and heavier than ordinary saucepans, it features high sides and a rounded rim that reduce spills, and tri-ply stainless steel can help save fuel by up to 20%. The clear tempered glass lid with a steam vent lets you monitor meals while staying tight, and the sturdy hollow handle reduces heat transfer for a secure grip. It works on induction, gas, electric, glass, ceramic, and halogen stovetops, withstanding up to 600° Fahrenheit, while the laser-etched nonstick interior cleans effortlessly.
