Experiment with and discover new flavors and techniques when cooking with KitchenAid Stainless Steel 3-Ply Base Cookware, designed with an extra thick layer of heat-conducting aluminum to eliminate hot spots by distributing heat evenly from edge to edge. Heavy-gauge stainless steel pots and pans feature a heavy bottom induction base for lasting durability, and the stockpot and saucepans have etched measuring marks to explore and test ingredients for new recipes. Tempered glass lids have built-in straining rims to lock in heat and flavor while also serving to strain liquids. Curious cooks can investigate a wider range of recipes in the broiler and oven, where cookware is safe to 500 degrees F, 350 degrees F with lids.
