Viking 3-Ply Stainless Steel Everyday Pan, 3.4 Quart

Viking designed this 3.4 Qt. Everyday Pan with keeping the versatility of a chef's pan in mind. Sauté, braise, simmer, or sear a protein and put it in the oven- the Viking 3-Ply Stainless Steel construction makes this an incredibly versatile cooking vessel for making anything from a sauce to a casserole. Handcrafted in the use, Viking 3-Ply Stainless Steel cookware is beautifully polished to a mirror finish. The 3-Ply Stainless Steel clad design combines three layers of metal to create one solid piece that is formed into the vessel. An induction capable stainless steel exterior is bonded to a layer of aluminum alloy and then finished with a final layer of high quality 18/10 stainless steel on the interior. The three-layer construction combines the durability of stainless with the superior conductivity of aluminum, delivering even heat distribution along the bottom and throughout the sides of the pan. This makes the saucepan extremely responsive, essential in making perfect sauces, heating liquids, or reheating sauces, or other food. Its stainless steel cooking surface is also non-reactive so there is no etching or interaction with sauces or other ingredients, especially ones high in acidity. The Viking-designed ergonomic handle takes stress off of the wrist, making cooking easier and enjoyable, while reducing heat transfer to keep the handle cool. The raised lid handle makes sure that it stays cool, allowing for space for use with baking mitt or towels. Stove, oven and grill friendly up to 600F degrees. Handcrafted in the use with a limited lifetime warranty.
