Essential for preparing soups and stocks, this stock pot is specially designed with tall, straight sides to slow evaporation and concentrate flavors. The pot can also be used for canning and blanching, with sturdy side handles that make it easy to transport. Made of stainless steel, the pot's three-ply construction features a thick-gauge aluminum core for fast heating. A starburst finish on the interior surface offers natural stick resistance and won't react with food.
