Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of 12 Quart Stock Pot - Blue
Customer Review: Starting to HATE this pot!!!
Summary: 3 Stars
I loved this pot when I first bought it because it was a nice heavy pot that I could do things with like brown onions and carrots in it before adding additional ingredients, etc. Also, I get water to boil much faster in this pot then I ever did in my lighter weight pots. But there are two downsides that make me wish I had gone to our local All-Clad outlet and spent the extra money for one of their stockpots instead: one reason is because the enamel scratches fairly easily - I find this annoying on a fairly expensive item because I expect such items to last a long time. But the reason why I am starting to HATE this pot is because pasta sticks to the bottom of it ALL THE TIME. I never have this happen with stainless steel clad aluminum pots. This pot just might be ending up on ebay.
Description of 12 Quart Stock Pot - Blue
Beautiful and practical, Le Creuset enameled steel accessories are designed to coordinate with Le Creusets classic enameled cast iron cookware. Made of heavy gauge carbon steel, Le Creuset accessories are enameled in vibrant Le Creuset colors. Truly the perfect addition to your Le Creuset collection. The enamel-on-steel construction of Le Creusets stockpots provides uniform heating for slow simmering or cooking pasta. Its tight-fitting lids seal the flavorful bouquet of time-seasoned and caring creations. The steel rims prevent chipping and the enamel interior wont absorb odors or flavors. Clean up is easy and Le Creuset stock pots are even dishwasher safe. Available in different sizes to best meet the needs of your family. Non-stick coating. ...Le Creuset has added this enamel-coated carbon-steel accessory line to its famous enamel-coated cast-iron cookware collection. The new line features the same bright colors, but not as much weight--something to consider when you're trying to lift 12 quarts of hot liquid off the stove, even with two handles. Though lighter than cast iron, the heavy-gauge steel distributes heat evenly across the bottom and up the sides of the pot for even cooking and reduction of soups and stocks, and rapid boiling of water for cooking pasta. No kitchen should be without at least one big stockpot, and Le Creuset's new version is a stylish, practical option. --Schuyler Ingle
