What it is?
The Viking contemporary 3-ply stainless steel 3.4-quart soup pot with vented glass lid combines a modern, Windsor pan-inspired design with the exceptional performance of 3-ply stainless steel cookware. The convenient size does double duty as a small Dutch oven, soup pot, or saucepan. The conical sides are angled out to provide more surface area for evaporation, while the walls retain more heat, resulting in faster cooking times. The vented glass lid allows you to monitor the cooking progress of your meal while reducing the chance of boil-overs. Additional features include a unique sealed rim that completely encapsulates the aluminum layer inside the stainless steel. Internal volume markings in both US and metric units make measuring liquids directly into the pan quick and easy. The Viking contemporary cookware combines a layer of aluminum alloy sandwiched between heavy-gauge stainless steel. The aluminum core provides exceptional heat transfer throughout the cookware, transferring heat evenly across the bottom and sides of the pan for rim-to-rim cooking. The exterior layer is magnetic stainless steel, making it incredibly durable and safe for all cooktops, including induction. The interior cooking layer is 304 non-reactive stainless steel that is easy to clean and prevents the transfer of metallic flavor when cooking acidic foods like tomato sauce. The Viking signature stay-cool handle is ergonomically designed for a secure grip, comfort, balance, and control, while remaining cool to the touch thanks to the built-in heat break in the long handles.
