Cooks Standard 7-Quart Classic Hard Anodized Nonstick Stockpot

The Cooks Standard 7-quart hard anodized non-stick Dutch oven casserole stockpot with a lid, in Black, boasts a durable hard anodized surface that is harder than stainless steel. The heavy-gauge aluminum core ensures even heat distribution, preventing hot spots. The non-stick coating delivers exceptional performance, making food release and cleaning easy. The tempered glass lid with a steam vent is protected by a stainless steel rim, while the stainless steel handle is riveted for strength and comfortable to hold. This large, multipurpose pot is oven-safe up to 500°F, with the glass lid being oven-safe up to 350°F. It is dishwasher-safe, but hand-washing is recommended.

The Dutch oven pot's heavy-duty aluminum construction allows for quick and even heat distribution, resulting in evenly heated food and better cooking results. The hard anodized surface is more wear-resistant than ordinary non-stick pots, and the specialized treatment forms a hard non-stick coating that effectively prevents food from sticking to the bottom, making for healthier cooking.

The tempered glass lid with a steam vent allows you to monitor the cooking process, while the riveted stainless steel handles are durable, comfortable, and designed for a secure grip. This versatile pot is suitable for various cooking methods, including canning, jarring, and stewing, and is easy to clean, ensuring it looks great in your kitchen.

However, the hard anodized stockpot is not compatible with induction cooking, as the aluminum pot bottom is not ferromagnetic and cannot be used for induction heating. The pot is designed to work on gas, electric, ceramic, and glass cooktops.

Overall, the Cooks Standard 7-quart hard anodized non-stick Dutch oven casserole stockpot with a lid is a durable, high-performance kitchen essential that offers even heat distribution, a non-stick surface, and a range of convenient features for your cooking needs.
