GREDIL 5.5 L Stainless Steel Cooking Pot with Lid

A cooking pot designed for professional kitchens, holding 5.5 litres of liquid or ingredients while distributing heat evenly across its base. The pot heats from the hob, transferring energy through its multi-layer bottom to prevent hot spots and ensure consistent cooking. This method allows sauces, stocks and braised dishes to simmer without scorching, while the broad surface area speeds evaporation when reducing liquids.

The operator places the pot on a compatible hob, adds ingredients and sets the heat level. The stay-cool handles remain safe to grip even when the pot is hot, allowing the chef to move or adjust it without interruption. A fitted lid traps steam, raising the internal temperature and shortening cooking times for dishes that require gentle, enclosed heat.

Constructed from stainless steel, the pot resists corrosion and staining from acidic or salty foods. The multi-layer bottom combines different metals to conduct heat rapidly and retain it, reducing the need for constant adjustment of the hob. Handles are riveted for strength and designed to stay cool to the touch during use.

The 5.5 litre capacity suits batch cooking for medium-sized service, while the 280 mm diameter and 90 mm height provide a stable footprint on commercial hobs. The weight remains manageable for lifting when full, yet the pot sits firmly without risk of tipping.

Cleaning follows from the materials: stainless steel wipes clean with a cloth and resists pitting from detergents. The smooth interior and exterior surfaces prevent food from adhering, while the riveted handles and seamless construction avoid crevices where debris could collect. The pot is dishwasher-safe, though hand washing prolongs the finish and the integrity of the multi-layer base.

Available as part of a set with matching lids, the pot integrates with other GREDIL stainless steel cookware for a uniform kitchen line.
