This compact 1 qt straining saucepan is made for small everyday cooking tasks, from boiling vegetables and making gravy to pouring hot stock. Its standout feature is the lid-and-spout workflow: the rotating self-basting lid lines up with the pan's built-in pour spouts, and its deep-rim design includes straining holes, so you can drain liquids right from the pan. Turn the lid back during covered cooking to help keep heat and moisture inside. The pan is built from stainless steel with a mirror-polished finish for a classic cookware look, and its full cap base pairs a thick aluminum core surrounded by stainless steel to support cooking heat across the base.
