Pasta Pot: Calphalon Contemporary Stainless 8-Quart Pot

by Matt
(Pasta Recipes Made Easy)

This quality pasta pot set is a mid-priced stainless steel product that will suit most sizes of family.

Like many of the pots in this guide, it handily features two separate inserts - one for your pasta (meaning easy draining), and a smaller 'steamer' insert that sits above the pasta and which you can use to cook up fish or veggies while your spaghetti boils below.

Featuring an aluminum core in the base for the best heat conductivity possible, this pan features a see-through glass cover (useful when cooking rice dishes for example, so you can check the water level), and its handles are designed firmly with ergonomic comfort in mind.

Last but not least, this Calphalon release can be cleaned in your dishwasher, is oven-proof up to temperatures of 450 degrees, and features an impressive lifetime warranty.

If you need a good-sized, family pasta pot, this model should definitely be on the your shortlist.
