From the comfortably arched handles to the stylish flared silhouettes, the Calphalon Contemporary line is designed to please. Looks aren't everything however, and this cookware line is not simply another pretty face! No indeed, this collection is constructed of heavy gauge aluminum, reknowned for its fast and even heating, and it's lined with durable non-stick for easy clean up and low fat cooking. Lids are of tempered glass to allow visual monitoring of the cooking process. This sauce pan is a good choice for making puddings, heating hot fudge or dips or for cooking veggies. Additionally the low and wide profile combine to facilitate evaporation, an essential aspect of reduction sauces.



Description

  • Heavy aluminum, with thick bottom to heat evenly, quickly
  • Anodized for hardness, with nonstick coating oven-safe to 450 degrees F
  • Riveted, brushed stainless-steel oval handle stays cool on stovetop

Technical Details


Perfect for reducing sauces or cooking vegetables on the stovetop and for braising meat in the oven, this shallow, 2-1/2-quart saucepan is coated with nonstick inside to release food readily and clean easily. The nonstick is durable enough to go safely into the oven at temperatures up to 450 degrees F. Made of heavy-gauge aluminum with a matte finish, the pan conducts heat uniformly and quickly. Because the aluminum is anodized it's harder than steel and the pan won't scratch, chip, or crack. The oval, brushed stainless-steel handle stays cool on the stovetop and has a hanging hole for the pan to be stored on hook or peg. The domed glass lid collects and returns moisture to food and permits monitoring of cooking without reducing the temperature inside the pan. Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick cookware carries a lifetime warranty against defects.


Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 2-1/2-Quart Shallow Saucepan with Lid Customer Review


Such an amazing product for such a reasonable price! I just put a second one in my cart because the first is always in use.

I use this at least once a day, and it performs flawlessly for every task. Rice, potatoes, sauces, veggies, soup reheats, etc. - versatile, good heat conduction, super easy cleanup. Especially like the glass lid; looks clean and streamlined, and easy to check rice without peeking.

Only word of caution: The handle on the pot stays cool, but the handle on the lid does not, so don't let your mind wander - as mine did - ouch!
