Product Description

Amazon.com Review

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 4-quart casserole pan makes clear why All-Clad's LTD cookware is so popular among contemporary cooks. It's ideal for baking casseroles, simmering soups and stocks, cooking pasta, and slow-cooking stew in the oven under its copper lid. Because the aluminum core extends up the sides, foods cook uniformly, even though the pan is 4-3/4 inches deep (8 inches in diameter). And because the interior is nonreactive, tomato-based sauces and other acidic foods won't taste metallic. Its polished 18/10 stainless-steel pan and lid handles are riveted for strength and grooved on the top for comfort. The loop handles stay cool on the stovetop but won't be harmed by an oven's heat. LTD cookware carries a lifetime warranty against defects and should be hand washed. --Fred Brack

This review is from: All-Clad LTD 4-Quart Casserole Pan (Kitchen)

I was given an Amazon gift certificate for Christmas, and I used part of it to add to my All-Clad LTD pan collection. I love the All-Clad pans. They are as solid as the Le Cruset pans which I considered buying--they are awfully pretty--but the All-Clad pans are not as heavy. The All-Clad finish is rugged and unlike the enamel-surface pots not given to chipping. I also like the tight-fitting lids which have enough heft that when I replace them during cooking I can feel them settle into the top of the pot, but they are not so heavy they are hard to lift.

The interior surface of my LTD pans is similar to that of my old Revere Wear pans, i.e. food will stick if you don't cook it properly (it is not teflon), however the LTD pans are composed of materials that evenly distribute heat as do my old Revere Wear pans with their copper bottoms. Also, like the Revear Wear pans, the All-Clad pans do not leave a metallic flavor in the food. You might ask why I bought the new All-Clad pans when I still have wear left in my Revear Wear pans, and the answer is that the Revear Wear pans were purchased when I had a very large family. They are big pans. I wanted some cute little pans for preparing meals for two people.

I am not motivated enough to grasp the subtleties of haute cuisine and there may be "better" pots on the market, but not for me. I have been cooking for over 50 years, and when I cook, I have high standards for the dishes I prepare. I waited a long while to replace my Revear Wear pans. After I purchased my first All-Clad pan, I became convinced I wanted to buy more of them because they are very "user friendly."

The four-quart pan is large enough to make a nice vegetable soup for two and plenty left over for freezing. Or you can boil up the potatos while you cook the green beans in the 2-quart pot. They look really pretty sitting on top of my new yellow stove.
