Consistent Performance for Everyday Cooking

When it comes to a great meal, the tools you use for preparation are as essential as the food itself. Calphalon provides the quality tools that bring out the best of any meal.

Easy Tips for Cooking with Stainless Steel

Enjoy great results from your stainless steel cookware by following these simple steps for no-stick cooking:

-- Take the chill off foods. Remove foods from the refrigerator 10-15 minutes before you start to cook.

-- Pre-heat over medium heat. Don't try to save time and preheat on high. It only takes a couple of minutes to preheat Calphalon cookware at the proper temperature to help prevent sticking.

-- Try the butter test. Pre-heat pan on medium, then test by rubbing a teaspoon of butter over the inside of the pan. When the butter begins to bubble briskly, it’s properly preheated. If the butter begins to brown, the heat is too high. Carefully wipe the pan with a paper towel, lower the heat, wait a minute, and try the butter test again.

-- Keep your cookware clean. Residue from previous cooking or aerosol cooking sprays is a common cause of sticking.

Ideal for myriad cooking options, this four-piece set is sturdily made of 18/10 stainless steel. Key to the set's versatility is an 8-quart pot with an aluminum disk in its bottom to conduct heat quickly and uniformly. With or without its tempered-glass lid, the pot can be used for simmering soup or stock and for cooking beef stew or pasta sauce. Two steamer inserts come along, a shallow one for steaming vegetables, fish fillets, or pieces of poultry and a deep one for cooking pasta or steaming lots of vegetables. The entire set is dishwasher-safe, and the aluminum disk in the pot's bottom is fully enclosed in stainless steel for a uniform look and easy cleanup. The inserts are highly polished, while the pot has a contemporary brushed-steel exterior with a mirror-finish band under the rim. The set carries a 10-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Customers are mixed about the size of the cooking pot. Some mention that it's the perfect size for a large soup for he family of 4, and the steam basket is actually quite large. However, others say that it is big and the lid is simply too small.

"...The “smaller” steam basket is actually quite large - larger than I would have liked, but my old small steam basket fits this new pot so no worries..." Read more

I burned this pit and now look

I burned this pit and now look
Wish I had the before photo. I was steaming sweet potatoes when we smelled burning. My brand new pot was ruined, or so we all thought. It was burned bad. REALLY BAD!!My husband found a method to clean the pot using lemons. Cut 3 or a lemons, check, we have a lemon tree, fill pot with water, check, we have water, and boil for five to 10 minutes. Didn't do a whole lot on its own, but the wooden spoon helped scrape some off. My husband used Bar Keepers Friend and after about 20 minutes with one if those sponges with a scrubbing side declared the interior clean. I finished scrubbing the bottom of the pot and the lid. Looks like new. Can't figure out why people can't clean these pots and pans. My previous pots and pans were 40+ year old Farberware that still looks great. Got a new induction stove and needed new cookware.I would not hesitate to recommend these as long as you will take care of them. Stainless is the best and this brand is great. I bought the other set with pans as well. So happy.

1.0 out of 5 stars Remaches no son de acero inoxidable NO LA USEN CON INGREDIENTES ACIDOS COMO TOMATE O TOMATILLO
Reviewed in Mexico on September 17, 2018
Este producto dice que es completamente de acero inoxidable y no es así. Es la segunda vez que la usaba, hicimos un caldo con base en tomate verde que dejamos hervir varias horas. Al lavarla me doy cuenta con desilusión de que los remaches que sostienen las agarraderas tienen un color y textura diferentes al interior de la olla. Se dañaron con la acidez del caldo. No les recomiendo esta olla. El fabricante miente al decir de qué está hecha y no pone advertencias de que no se debe usar con ciertos ingredientes. El tomate es bastante común y siendo supuestamente de acero inoxidable debería resistir. Completa decepción con los productos Calphalon.
