Calphalon Copper Tri-ply 2 ½-quart Shallow Saucepan with Stainless Steel Lid

The Calphalon Copper Triply 2-½-Quart Shallow Saucepan with Stainless Lid is crafted with precision to deliver premium performance.

Great Performance

As its name suggested, the saucepan is constructed by bonding three difference metals together. Its copper exterior does not only contribute to its warm and classic look but also the best heat conductor. Then there’s the pure, heavy-gauge aluminum in the saucepan’s inner core. The combination of two of the three metals results in the premium performance of the saucepan. This will sear and brown food quickly with all the control that you need.

The interior of the Calphalon Copper Triply 2-½-Quart Shallow Saucepan with Stainless Lid is made from stainless steel. It will not tarnish or react to highly acidic food. Personally, I like that it is highly reflective so that I could see the color and texture changes and judge how the food is cooking. All three metals are bonded under extreme pressure into a disk and then drawn into its shape so that all of the walls are equally thick.

Ergonomically Designed

The Calphalon Copper Triply 2-½-Quart Shallow Saucepan with Stainless Lid is designed to work effortlessly. Thanks to the Cool-V design, the handles will stay cool on the stove so that you will not burn yourselves while cooking. Plus, the handles are secured by heavy duty stainless steel rivets. I love that the rims are flared so transferring stew and soups from the saucepan to the serving dish are easy and non-messy.

Maintaining the saucepan is easy – just don’t put it in the dishwasher as the detergent is too harsh and would tarnish the copper. To restore the shine, all you need to do is polish your copper cookware with a paste made from 1 ½ cup white vinegar and 2 tablespoons of coarse salt with a sponge or dishcloth. Rinse it in hot water afterwards.

The lifetime warrantied Calphalon Copper Triply 2-1/2-Quart Shallow Saucepan is a great buy! Amazon has some great deals on it from time to time.

Copper cookware is always attractive when you buy it but you’ll need to know how to care for copper cookware so that they keep on looking nice in your kitchen. Otherwise you might be better off buying a set of stainless steel cookware or hard anodized cookware that don’t need a lot of polishing.
