Selecting a Cookware Set with Even Heat Distribution

The All-Clad Copper Core 7 piece cookware set is the centerpieceof the All-Clad Copper Core brand of cookware. In their evaluations, available online, both casual and professional chefs describe the All Clad Copper Core items as some of the best cookware on the market. This line of products combines the best properties of copper and stainless steel to result in a collection of pots and pans which cooks evenly, but still can be cleaned easily.

Copper is recognized by chefs and chemists as a great conductor of heat. Stainless steel is especially uncomplicated to clean and won’t rust. Each individual part of the All-Clad Copper Core 7 Pc Set is specifically designed with a core of copper inserted between the stainless steel outside, and an aluminum inner surface. The addition of aluminum results in cookware which is appreciably lighter and easier to handle.

The construction of each item features five distinct layers. From the inner to outer layers, the arrangement is comprised of a stainless steel, non-stick cooking surface, a layer of lightweight aluminum, the copper interior for even heating, a second aluminum layer, and the stainless steel exterior. Long grips keep hands comfortably cool, while trademark scooped rims allow dripless pouring.

As expected from its design, the cookware cooks quickly and evenly. Boiling food in this cookware is a complete joy. Burnt-on food will tend to affix to the cooking surface more than it would a teflon surface. Fortunately, monitoring your cooking will keep the food from scorching.

Easy cleansing is a very helpful feature of this brand of cookware. A brief soak in soapy water, completed by a easy washing, eliminates all food, even tomatoes or cheese which was cooked at too high of a setting. Towel drying can keep unsightly water spots from collecting on the outside. Stainless steel cleaning and polishing compounds will help you  maintain the cookware’s new, shiny appearance. To prevent tarnish, the exterior copper components should be perioidically polished.

The All-Clad Copper Core 7 piece cookware set can be purchased from better stores as well as the rest of the All Clad Copper Core line of cookware. In addition, All Clad sells a fourteen piece set, a ten piece set, and a comprehensive collection of separate pots, pans and other cookware.
