Cuisinart Chef’s Classic™ Stainless Stockpot with Straining Cover, 6 Quart

A stainless steel stockpot is a go-to for boiling and batch cooking, especially pasta, potatoes and other foods you want to cook in plenty of water. The 6-quart capacity is a practical size for everyday meals when you want room to stir and boil without crowding.

The cover is designed with straining openings and fastens securely to the pot, so you can tip the pot and drain water directly through the lid. It is a convenient way to boil and strain in one step while using fewer tools.

Yes, the stainless steel stockpot is compatible with all stovetops, including induction. It is also suitable for standard electric and gas ranges.

The interior markings show measurements in both cups and liters. They make it easier to fill to a target amount for cooking pasta, rice or other everyday tasks without pulling out a separate measuring container.

While it shines as a pasta pot, it is also useful anytime you are boiling and draining, like cooking potatoes or blanching vegetables. The straining cover helps streamline those same steps for many weeknight recipes.
