Product Description
Using an insert is so much safer and easier than juggling a pot full of boiling water and a colander. Simply lift the insert up, allow the water to drain back into the pot and then pour your pasta into a serving bowl. This is also extremely handy for corn on the cob, clams and sundry other candidates for steaming or boiling.

When cooking pasta, shellfish, or corn, you need to quickly remove the contents of the pot to prevent overcooking; this insert allows you to do just that. And when cooking stocks, you can remove vegetables and meaty bones by simply lifting the insert by its sturdy handles, avoiding the risks of pouring from a heavy pot into a strainer in the sink. Unlike many inserts, you don't sacrifice any space with this 8-quart stainless-steel piece. It rests gently on the base of the stockpot and then rises above the pot lip another two inches so that you don't lose any height. The lid fits just as neatly on the insert as it does on the pot. Care for this pan with consideration for the long useful life it offers: wash it by hand with mild cleaners. --Sherry Smith
