Emeril Lagasse Stainless Steel Copper Core Saucepan, 4-Quart, Silver

In my Emeril Lagasse stainless steel with copper core cookware you have the beauty of stainless steel with the added bonus of an aluminum base bottom surrounding a copper core. This means that the cooking surface heats up quickly and the heat is exceptionally well-distributed. These pots and pans are also ready to go from either conventional or induction stovetops straight to the oven and then for quick clean up, they are dishwasher-safe. Tempered glass lids make it easy to monitor cooking without lifting the lid and losing precious steam. Perhaps my favorite feature about this set, however, is the pour spouts and straining lids which work together to allow draining of cooking liquids without removing the lids. This 4 quart saucepan is one of the most often-used pans in my kitchen. Not too big and not too small, it’s just perfect for so many tasks: steaming or braising vegetables, making pasta for the family, or making soups and stews.
