Paderno Series 2500 0.75-quart Stainless Steel Sauce Pot with Lid

Small quantities scorch in a large pot because the liquid spreads thin across the base. This 0.75-quart sauce pot keeps a cup of liquid deep enough to reduce slowly, which makes it the right vessel for clarifying butter, poaching a single egg, cooking down a balsamic glaze or finishing a small pan sauce.

It is part of Paderno’s Series 2500, made in Italy for restaurant use, and comes with a matching stainless lid. It is equally useful at a restaurant station for warming butter and at home for the small jobs that tend to scorch in a larger saucepan.

For soups, grains and larger batches of sauce, step up to the Paderno Series 2500 3-quart Sauce Pot.
