Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of All-Clad Master Chef 2 1-Quart Saucier Pan
Customer Review: Heats very evenly, but has a few design flaws
Summary: 4 Stars
I use this little pan for melting butter, toasting seeds, making sauces, making one mug of hot chocolate, and reheating meals (since I don't have a microwave). I did accidentally put it through the dishwasher once, however (not recommended by the manufacturer), and the pretty finish is now somewhat dulled.
The main pros are:
1) Nice, sturdy pan with a thick bottom as well as uniformly thick sides. Heats very evenly with no hot spots.
2) Very easy to clean. It's not nonstick but it cleans up beautifully with just soap and water.
3) Lovely design.
This pan also has a few flaws:
1) There is no lip, so pouring is quite messy. (This is a regular annoyance.)
2) The handle is heavy, and when the pan is not full it tips easily.
3) The sides are somewhat low, as another reviewer mentioned. I think this pan would work better as a 1.5 quart pan.
4) Doesn't come with a lid, which is useful when reheating meals.
Description of All-Clad Master Chef 2 1-Quart Saucier Pan
Sauces require special treatment to ensure peak flavor and texture. This open saucier pan has the rounded sloping sides that will ensure you are able to thoroughly incorporate ingredients, without having solids get stuck in the bend where side meets base. The new MC2 cookware combines the industrial style of a brushed aluminum exterior with gleaming stainless steel stay cool handles.The second generation of All-Clad's Master Chef line (MC2), this cookware combines brushed aluminum with stainless-steel accents for a contemporary look. Like All-Clad's other renowned cookware collections, Master Chef provides serious and professional cooks with all the virtues that make All-Clad's worldwide reputation unsurpassed. Key to its high performance is a three-ply, bonded construction. Sandwiched between the brushed aluminum exterior and an 18/10 stainless-steel interior lies a thick core of pure aluminum that spreads heat evenly across the bottoms of pots and pans and all the way up the sides. The interior is highly polished so it's stick- as well as corrosion-resistant. Handles, rivets, and tight-fitting lids are all gleaming stainless steel.
This versatile 1-quart saucier pan has rounded sides, which increase the amount of food it can hold relative to the diameter of its bottom. Because the aluminum core extends up the sides, foods cook uniformly, even though the pan is 2-1/4 inches deep. And because the interior is nonreactive, tomato-based sauces and other acidic foods won't taste metallic. Its polished 18/10 stainless-steel handle is riveted to the pan for strength, grooved on the top and rounded on the bottom for comfort, and holed in the end for hanging on a hook or peg. The long handle stays cool on the stovetop but won't be harmed by an oven's heat. Master Chef cookware carries a lifetime warranty against defects and should be hand washed. --Fred Brack
