Cuisinart Stainless Steel Saucepan with Lid, 3 qt.

A stainless steel saucepan is a go-to for everyday stovetop tasks like simmering sauces, warming soups and boiling water. Because the cooking surface is designed not to react with food, it is a strong choice for recipes where you want clean, true flavor.

The pure aluminum encapsulated in the base is designed to heat quickly and distribute heat more evenly across the bottom of the pan. That steady heating helps when you are simmering and stirring, especially for sauces and soups.

Yes. This stainless steel saucepan is induction ready, so it can be used on induction cooktops.

Cooking with the lid on helps hold in heat and moisture, which supports better texture and flavor as foods simmer. It is especially useful when you want to gently cook soups, grains or vegetables without losing too much moisture.

Interior measurement markings let you check liquid levels right in the pan, so you can measure as you cook. It is a simple detail that makes it easier to stay accurate with sauces, reductions and reheating.

The cast stainless Cool Grip stick handle is contoured for a secure hold and designed to stay cool on the stovetop. It is made to help you move and stir more comfortably during everyday cooking.
