GREDIL 2.2 L Stainless Steel Pot with Lid

A shallow, wide stainless steel pot designed for even heat distribution across the cooking surface. The multi-layer base combines different metals to spread heat quickly and uniformly, reducing hot spots that can scorch food or cause uneven cooking. This construction also resists corrosion, extending the pot's working life in busy kitchens where frequent washing and exposure to acids are common.

The pot holds 2.2 litres, making it suitable for tasks that require a broad surface area relative to depth: reducing sauces, simmering vegetables, or cooking grains where evaporation is part of the process. The 200 mm diameter gives ample room for stirring and turning ingredients without crowding, while the 70 mm height keeps the contents shallow enough for easy access.

Cool-touch handles are riveted to the body, allowing the operator to lift the pot safely without waiting for the handles to cool. The lid, sold as part of the set, traps steam and heat, speeding up cooking and helping to maintain consistent temperatures.

To use, place the pot on a compatible hob or range. The multi-layer base responds quickly to changes in heat setting, so start on a medium flame and adjust as needed. Load ingredients, cover with the lid if required, and monitor the contents through the cooking cycle. Once finished, remove the pot from the heat and allow it to cool before cleaning.

The pot is constructed from stainless steel throughout, with a base that integrates aluminium or copper layers for heat conductivity. The handles are also stainless steel, designed to stay cool during stovetop use. The lid is made from the same stainless steel, ensuring durability and a tight fit.

The 2.2 litre capacity dictates the volume of food the pot can hold at once, while the 200 mm diameter and 70 mm height determine the space it occupies on the hob and in storage. The shallow profile allows it to slide easily into cupboards or under shelves, and the cool-touch handles reduce the risk of burns when retrieving it.

Cleaning follows from the materials: stainless steel can be washed in hot soapy water or run through a commercial dishwasher. The multi-layer base should not be scrubbed with abrasive pads, as these can damage the surface and reduce heat conductivity. The lid and handles are cleaned in the same way as the pot body.

The pot is part of a range that includes different volumes and diameters, all sharing the same multi-layer base and cool-touch handle design. It is categorised under professional cookware in the GREDIL catalogue.
