Distinguished among All-Clad's renowned cookware collections by its stylish, charcoal-black, hard-anodized aluminum exterior, the LTD line 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 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. The striking exterior resists scratching, chipping, and peeling.
This casserole pot exemplifies why All-Clad's LTD cookware is so popular among contemporary cooks. Perfect for cooking a casserole in the oven or a soup or risotto on the stovetop, it's beautiful enough to bring to the table or serve from at the counter between flickering candles. Its 2-1/2 quart capacity is ample for preparing meals for two and, to inspire a couple's culinary creativity, four recipes are included. For serving, a 13-inch stainless-steel slotted spoon accompanies the pot. The pot's two handles stay cool on the stovetop but won't be harmed by an oven's highest heat. LTD cookware carries a lifetime warranty against defects and should be hand washed. --Fred Brack
