Need the perfect nonstick Stock Pot? Look no further! From stocks and broths to soups and stews, the Swiss Diamond XD Nonstick Stock Pot is a necessity for mealtime with family or friends. This is the pot your mom was talking about when she said that every household needs a big, high-quality pot! The 15CM cooking depth provides an 8.5-quart capacity, while the 11 inch diameter (28cm) pot easily fits on your stovetop. The Stock Pot is ideal for the slow, gentle simmering of beans and chili as well as soups and stocks. This stock pot includes a heat-tempered glass lid with an adjustable steam vent. The new XD coating provides years of quality, trouble-free cooking. Not only are there 20 percent more diamonds than before, the seal between the cooking surface and the aluminum base is improved, creating a more corrosive resistant layer. This not only improves the durability of your Swiss Diamond cookware, but provides a 40 percent better food release than the previous HD coating. Plus, this pan transfers heat so efficiently, you never need to use more than low-medium heat.
