Know before you buy

No, the porcelain enamel coating is non-reactive and nonporous, meaning it will not absorb flavors or odors, ensuring your sauces and stews taste exactly as intended.
Yes, this stockpot is dishwasher safe. However, hand washing is generally recommended to maintain the luster of the enamel finish over time.
This size is perfect for smaller portions, such as simmering sauces, preparing grains, cooking side dishes of pasta, or making small-batch stews and casseroles.
