The All-Clad 6-Quart Pasta Pot is ideal for preparing pasta. The large capacity gives noodles room to boil, and the 4-quart insert allows you to drain excess liquid without the need for a strainer. Durable stainless steel construction provides even heating, and the polished finish lasts even when placed in the dishwasher. The large, 6-quart capacity of this pot makes it ideal for boiling pasta, as the noodles have plenty of room to move throughout the pot without sticking to the sides. The included 4-quart perforated insert eliminates the need for a strainer. When you're finished cooking, simply remove the insert and any liquid will drain through the small holes on the sides and bottom back into the pot.
