All-Clad Stainless Steel Tri-Ply Bonded Pasta Pentola with Insert

This versatile cookware piece, known as a Pasta Pentola, derives its name from the Italian words "pentola," meaning pot. As the name suggests, it is an excellent choice for boiling pasta due to its high sides and the included colander. The colander can be easily lifted to drain the pasta without damaging the delicate starches.

But the Pasta Pentola's capabilities extend beyond just pasta. It is also great for steaming or making foods that require straining small particles, such as meat or vegetable stocks. As part of the D3 Collection, this Pasta Pentola features a bonded tri-ply construction, with a responsive aluminum core pressed together with two layers of durable stainless steel, ensuring fast and even heat distribution.

With a capacity of 7 quarts, this Pasta Pentola can accommodate a couple of pounds of pasta and water. To maintain the brand-new appearance of your All-Clad cookware, it is recommended to wash it with a soap and sponge instead of using the dishwasher.

Like all of All-Clad's bonded cookware, the Pasta Pentola is handmade in the USA at the company's Canonsburg, Pennsylvania factory. It is crafted with ultra-durable materials that will last a lifetime and never go out of style. A flat, stainless-steel lid is included to lock in moisture, and the handles and colander insert are made in China.

The Pasta Pentola's 3-ply bonded construction consists of durable stainless steel encapsulating an aluminum core, ensuring even heating throughout. The highly polished cooking surface features a starburst finish, offering stick resistance and easy maintenance, and it will not react with food.

The contoured stainless-steel handles are permanently secured with stainless-steel rivets, and the capacity is etched on the base. This versatile and high-quality cookware piece is a must-have for any home chef who loves preparing delicious pasta dishes or steaming a variety of foods.
