Mauviel M'heritage 6501.16 250c 1.9-Quart Sauce Pan and Cast Iron Handle


Great pot, perfect copper and durable steel lining
Copper is known for its heat conductivity and this one pot was my first venture into the realm of copper pots! I'll never go back! The heat propagates evenly and quickly to the food, cooking faster and better. The steel lining is durable and prevents food from touching the copper, which is not healthy.

It is a heavy pot, so not recommended for anyone who is not ready to exercise his/her muscles a bit... Another disadvantage is that the handle does get very warm, not hot, so it is recommended that you do not hold it with bare hands after it has been cooking for a while. And it is not cheap.

All that said, nothing beats steel lining and copper for quality cooking. If you are just looking for a decorative piece (I am surprised people would buy pots just to hang them on the wall but there it is) buy one of the cheaper and lighter models.
