All-Clad Copper Core Cookware

This allows for precise temperature control, meaning the pan reacts quickly when you adjust the burner heat, which is essential for delicate tasks like searing or reducing sauces.

Yes, this set is dishwasher safe. However, to maintain the polished finish of the stainless steel and the integrity of the handles over the long term, hand washing with a gentle cleanser is generally recommended by culinary professionals.

The handles are designed to stay cool on the stovetop thanks to their riveted construction and ergonomic shape, which minimizes heat transfer. While they remain comfortable to touch during normal stovetop use, you should always use an oven mitt when removing the pans from the oven.

Because this is high-quality stainless steel, it is not non-stick. To prevent sticking, preheat your pan on medium heat before adding oil or butter, and ensure your food is at room temperature before cooking. If you do encounter stuck-on food, a simple soak in warm, soapy water or a stainless steel cleaner will restore the surface.
