This multi-cooker does the work of several pots and pans and can even turn a complex pasta-and-vegetable dinner into an easy one-pot meal. The 12-quart stockpot has graduated measurements (ranging from 2 to 10 quarts) down its side and can simmer soups or stews on its own. Add the large strainer and you can boil large quantities of pasta or potatoes or tall ears of corn. Substitute the steamer basket and you can steam smaller portions of vegetables or even dim sum. A tempered glass lid fits on the top of all three pieces of cookware and is vented for better visibility of your foods while they cook.
Bauen Pagoda cookware is designed for the home but constructed of restaurant-quality materials to stand up to the rigors of a busy kitchen. The stockpot, steamer, and strainer are all made of a heavy-gauge 18/10 stainless steel for durability. For quick and even heating, the stockpot also has an aluminum disk encapsulated in its bottom. Both the stockpot and strainer have silicone handles that stay cool during stovetop cooking and are comfortable to grip. The steamer basket has a stainless-steel handle that folds down to accommodate the lid and folds back up for removing from the range. This multi-cooker is covered by a limited lifetime warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde
