Shallow, 3-quart pot perfect for cooking cassoulet or other casseroles for 4-6 Three-ply: stainless-steel layers sandwich pure aluminum core for even heating Comfortable lid and stay-cool loop handles riveted for strength Dishwasher-safe, but hand washing recommended Lifetime warranty against defects Product Review The bestseller among All-Clad's renowned cookware collections, the Stainless line provides serious and professional cooks with all the virtues that make All-Clad's worldwide reputation unsurpassed. Key to its high performance is a three-ply, bonded construction. Sandwiched between layers of stainless steel lies a thick core of pure aluminum that spreads heat evenly across the bottoms of pots and pans and all the way up the sides. The interior is 18/10 stainless steel, highly polished so it's stick-resistant as well as stain- and corrosion- resistant. The exterior is gleaming, magnetic stainless steel that works on induction as well as conventional stovetops and, with care, remains beautiful during this cookware's lifetime warranty against defects--and beyond. This shallow (3-1/4 inches deep) cassoulet pot makes clear why All-Clad's Stainless cookware is so popular. Perfect for baking a cassoulet or casserole or for cooking on the stovetop, it's beautiful enough to serve from at the table. Its capacity of 3 quarts is ample for preparing meals for four to six people. The 10-inch pot's two handles stay cool on the stovetop but won't be harmed by an oven's highest heat. Although Stainless cookware is dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. --Fred Brack Product Description This high-performance All Clad cassoulette is constructed with a nonreactive stainless-steel interior, an even-heating pure aluminum core and a hand-polished magnetic stainless steel exterior. Features stay-cool handles and a snug-fitting lid. Dishwasher safe. Manufacturer's limited lifetime warranty. Product Reviews The Cassoulet is a classic French stew which, according to the Larousse Gastronomique is 'A dish, originally from languedoc which consists of haricot beans cooked in a stew pot with prok rinds and seasonings. A garnish of meats, which varies from region to region, and a gratin topping are added in the final stages' This is a somewhat pricy piece of cookery for something designed to do a particular, somewhat complicated dish. I originally bought it with a gift certificate to a good cookware store because I wanted to be sure I had something both durable and distinctive. I have since found that the size and shape of the pot, aside from the superior All-Clad construction is excellent for both braises and thick gratins, two of my favorite types of dishes. It also happens to be just the right shape for whisking sauces and making baked pasta dishes and casseroles (note the similarity in name) such as macaroni and cheese. It is especially good for dishes where you want it covered for most of the cooking, with an uncovered browning step at the end. Excellent pot, especially if you simply cannot live without every possible piece of French cookery!
