Multi-use, multi-featured 7-qt pot
By C. G. King
I've had All Clad cookware for years and I guess I take it for granted. I recently became enamored with a pot shown on TV. I'd actually forgotten how much better All Clad is because of its thick stainless steel. The new pot seemed so thin by comparison and sure enough it didn't take long before something burned in it. I eventually got it clean but the interior finish is darkened permanently. It just reminded me to stick to the All Clad.This particular pot is wonderful for many reasons. First of all, because it is tall and relatively narrow I use it for things that would splatter and make a mess if using the three or even the four quart pot. This one is a little bigger around than the three and four quart pans and the covers aren't interchangeable, but it's a small difference. The pot is mostly just taller. I wouldn't make tomato sauce without it or strawberry jam that tends to climb pot walls and wants to boil over. While the pot is tall, it's not so tall I can't get in there easily to tend my stew or whatever.Secondly, because of the shape, it doesn't take up all the space in my dishwasher. I can even get both the pot and the insert in there at once. Although I use the pot alone for lots of things like big batches of soup, the insert adds many more options. It's supposed to be for pasta, but I actually don't use it for that because I rarely make that much at once. I use it for corn on the cob and boiling potatoes where I want to be able to lift out and drain the contents all in one shot, but also for making stock where I can lift out the chicken carcass and flavoring veggies leaving only the nice stock, already strained, in the pot. When the stock is cooled I ladle it right into my jars and freeze it for later use or go on to make soup. I haven't had to pour a heavy pot into a colander to strain out the solids while saving the liquid in another pot.Since the insert doesn't sit on the bottom of the pot (up by about an inch), its contents will not burn and you don't need as much water. Whatever is in the insert that is not submerged will cook down or steam with the cover on. In fact you need to be careful not to overfill the pot with water lest it boil over between the pot and the insert. Since the insert sits higher, it's easy to get carried away adding too much water.All in all, this is one of the most used pots in my house and highly recommended.

By David Debartolo, Rina Pignone
We have been building our collection of All Clad pots and pans for about 10 years now, and for whatever reason never added this until just now. I can't believe that we lived without it for so long. It has quickly become our most used piece. The build quality is very high, as we have come to expect with All Clad. This should be the first piece you buy if you are interested in having All Clad pots and pans.
