Cooking pots

A big pot is one of those things you buy once and use for thirty years. Sunday sugo, a pot of soup for the freezer, pasta for a table of twelve, passata day in February. The pot itself does not do the cooking, but the wrong one scorches on the bottom and turns a good afternoon into a scrubbing job.

Aluminium or stainless is the first question. The Padrini aluminium stock pots, including the 40 litre with pasta strainer, and the aluminium casserole pots heat fast and stay light enough to lift when full, which is why most Italian kitchens have them. Stainless is the tougher option and easier to keep looking new. The Inoxpran 22cm stock pot and the stainless pots with pasta strainer insert suit anyone who boils a lot of pasta, since the basket lifts straight out and drains over the pot. The heavy duty stockpot with lid is the one for long simmering. Then there are the specialists. The copper automatic polenta makers, including the 25cm Polenta Mia, stir themselves so you are not standing over the stove for forty minutes. The double wall pot with a jam dispensing valve fills jars from the base without ladling.

Measure your burner before you buy. A 40 litre pot on a small home ring will take an hour to come up. Ask us at Laverton North or Epping. See also gas burners, sauce making and pasta making.
