Kuhn Rikon Duroply 4-Quart Stockpot 30558

Date Published: 5/18/06

Made in Switzerland, the Kuhn Rikon Duroply 4-Quart Stockpot 3055 is a professional-grade multi-layer cookware that is designed for soups, stews, and more. The name Duroply refers to the high-quality multi-layer material, which transmits heat directly from the base of the pan up the sides for gentle, even heating of foods. Two layers of stainless steel surround three layers of aluminum, to combine the best properties of both. Because the layers travel all the way up the side walls, rather than being confined to the base, the heat travels up and throughout the cooking surface as well.

The pan itself is characterized by a beautiful brushed stainless-steel interior, exterior, and lid, and is complemented by open-style mirror-finish handles, which are permanently affixed to a rectangular plate that is riveted in place. The lid has a flat top design with a flared rim, which sits on top and just inside the pan to seal in steam, flavors, and nutrients. The long, looped handles don't become overly hot during stovetop use, but will get quite hot when placed in the oven.

Suitable for use on all cooktops, including induction, the Duroply cookware is also oven safe to high temperatures. One special feature of this stockpot is the interior capacity markings, which let you quickly see the level in quarts/liters of food in the pan. The stockpot is available in 2-quart, 3-quart, or 4-quart sizes, and the largest is well-suited for cooking pasta, chili, or a hearty portion of soup or stew. Because of the rapid heat distribution, foods cook faster, allowing you to save energy regardless of your particular type of stovetop.
