All-Clad E414S6 Stainless Steel Pasta Pot and Insert Cookware, 6-Quart, Silver

The large, 6-quart capacity of this pot makes it ideal for boiling pasta, as the noodles have plenty of room to move throughout the pot without sticking to the sides. The included 4-quart perforated insert eliminates the need for a strainer. When you’re finished cooking, simply remove the insert and any liquid will drain through the small holes on the sides and bottom back into the pot.

In addition to pasta, the pot and insert can be used to prepare a wide range of foods. Make different stocks by adding meat or vegetables and seasonings to the insert, or use it to steam vegetables by adding a small amount of water to the pot under the insert.

Made with heavy-gauge stainless steel, this pasta pot is built for long-term use. The large, sturdy loop handles make it easy to lift and carry around your kitchen, while the polished stainless finish looks elegant and complements other All-Clad cookware. The included lid and insert are also made with stainless steel, and all three components are safe to put in your dishwasher.

After years of perfecting the bonding process, company founder John Ulam established All-Clad Metalcrafters in 1971 and began producing professional-quality bonded cookware for working chefs and avid home cooks. The brand flourished as early adopters discovered the cookware’s extraordinary properties and exemplary cooking performance. Today, All-Clad cookware is still handcrafted in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, with American-made steel–the same way it was four decades ago. It is widely sought after by the world’s top chefs and passionate home cooks.
