Stalgast Stockpot with Lid – 28 cm Diameter, 11.1 Litre Capacity

A stockpot holds large volumes of liquid for simmering stocks, soups, stews and boiling pasta. The wide base spreads heat evenly across the bottom, while the tall sides reduce evaporation and keep ingredients submerged. A lid traps steam, raising the temperature inside and speeding up cooking without scorching the contents. The pot stands directly on the hob, transferring heat from the burner or induction coil through its metal base into the food. To use, fill the pot with ingredients and place it on the hob. Set the heat to the desired level and cover with the lid. Monitor the liquid level and temperature, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Once cooking is complete, lift the pot using the handles, which stay cooler than the body due to their design and material. The pot is made of stainless steel with a satin finish, resisting corrosion and wear. The base is multi-layer encapsulated, combining different metals to conduct and distribute heat efficiently. Steel handles are welded at multiple points for strength and stability. The construction suits gas, electric, ceramic and induction hobs, adapting to different heat sources without warping or losing performance. A diameter of 280 mm and height of 180 mm give a volume of 11.1 litres, enough for bulk cooking while fitting on standard hobs. The size allows the pot to be moved between worktops and sinks without overhang, and the weight remains manageable for lifting when full. The satin-finished stainless steel surface resists stains and wipes clean while the seamless welded base prevents trapped food from burning on during long simmers. Stainless steel resists staining and does not absorb odours, so a wash with detergent and hot water removes most residues. The pot is dishwasher safe, though hand washing preserves the satin finish longer. The encapsulated base and welded handles have no crevices where food can lodge, making scrubbing straightforward. The pot is a single model without variants, designed for professional kitchens and frequent use.
