Product Highlight: NEW Stainless Steel Professional Pasta Pot

Pasta perfection has arrived.

Le Creuset’s NEW Stainless Steel Professional Pasta Pot is an indispensable piece of kitchen equipment with a versatility of uses that go beyond the perfect al dente pasta.

Crafted from premium, professional-grade stainless steel that uniquely resists against discolouration and staining over time; the pasta pot features unique 3-ply construction which ensures even heat conduction and distribution while cooking. This makes it ideal for boiling pasta and vegetables.

The deep colander insert adds functionality and convenience making it easier to transfer pasta straight from the casserole into the serving bowl. The usual steam and splashing of transferring pasta back and forth is eliminated as you need only remove the insert and drain your ingredients over the kitchen sink. Apart from efficient drainage, the insert also works well for steaming shellfish or blanching vegetables.

This 8.5 litre pasta pot is suitable for all types of stovetops, including induction, and carries a lifetime guarantee. With a contemporary look and amazing results, the pasta pot makes a large pasta dinner completely hassle-free, allowing you to bring the flavours of Italy (and elsewhere) to your kitchen-table with ease.

BENEFITS:

• A full aluminium core heats quickly and evenly, and is protected by the rolled, sealed and polished stainless steel rim
• Magnetic external layer is induction-compatible and infused with titanium to resist discoloration
• Inside layer is made of surgical-grade stainless steel for a safe and stable cooking surface
• Precision-pour rim allows for clean, convenient pouring directly from the pan
• Premium steel blend resists pitting and scorching to maintain its lustre over time
• Dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning, and oven-safe to 260°C
