Adding the Copper Core Line to Your Kitchen

By Adam Rahim

All Clad Copper Core 7 piece cookware set, along with their line of cookware, is decribed by chefs as some of the finest cookware available anywhere. Easy cleaning and even heat cooking puts this cookware at the top of their line.

The all clad copper core 7 piece cookware set features a copper layer (visible as a copper band) sandwiched between the stainless steel exterior and the aluminum interior. Copper is the best heat conductor, but is not as durable as stainless steel or as light as aluminum. By using a copper core between the other metals, you get the best of all worlds.

From inside to outside it is having a five layer configuration. The different layers are a stainless steel surface for cooking, an aluminum layer for the purpose of reducing weight, a copper layer for better heat conduction, and a layer of aluminium then and lastly a layer of stainless steel coated with stick-resistant material. It is having extended handles which designed such a way to remain cool always and is having comfortable gripping. The curled rims help in drip less pouring of liquids. The lid for the all clad copper core 7 piece cookware set is designed to fit it securely.

The copper core heats briskly and evenly. Bringing water to a boil is a sheer delight with this set. Although the stainless steel cooking surface is not as non-stick as a teflon surface, proper cooking technique will completely prevent food from sticking.

The best feature of the entire line would have to be hands down the ease-of-cleaning. To clean all that is requires is a short soak in warm, soapy water, then with a plastic brush scrub briefly, this will work even after frying at high heat. Simply dry with a towel to avoid those pesky water spots. If a bright shine is what you desire, special cleaners and polishers can be used to achieve just that. Tarnishing can be avoided by polishing the visible copper band.

All Clad Copper Core also brings you other assortments as well as individual pieces of cookware. Besides the bestselling all clad copper core 7 piece cookware set, the product line also offers a fourteen piece set and a ten piece set, not to mention the complementing individual pots and pans like the all clad copper 10 inch fry pan. - 15485
