Professional kitchens use stainless steel because it performs well and is easy to clean. In its Healthy Kitchen cookware set, Cuisinart combines this professional-quality performance with the convenience of a nonstick surface--and one that survives the dishwasher! As a health bonus, the set contains no aluminum, so there's no worry of it leaching into your food; in addition, the nonstick surface means you'll cook with less oil and butter. Grill up a quick sandwich in the 9-1/2-inch skillet, the only piece without a cover. Tight-fitting lids seal in flavor on both of the saucepans (which hold 2 quarts and 2-3/4 quarts), the 3-1/2-quart sauté pan with helper handle, and the 6-quart saucepot, which also has handles. Dripless rims make pouring neater, and all pieces are oven-safe up to 450 degrees F. Because this cookware is made with copper sandwiched between two sheets of stainless steel, it's highly heat-conductive, so food will burn if the heat is too high, and particularly delicate foods should be watched carefully even on medium and low heats. The hand-polished mirror finish looks great even after many uses.
