| "Save your pennies !!!!!!!" |
Date: 12/4/2004 |
"Like all of the coper-core pieces from All-Clad, this is a beauty.
I used to think people who spent "so much" on cookware were INSANE.
If you actually use this pan every day (and you can)...
...and turn out consistently delightful meals (and you will)...
...for every dish that turns out as you had hoped, pop one penny in a jar (you can find them everywhere if you look, my kids do!) and by a years time(1 cent a day) you will have saved enough to go and get another of these delightful pans!
The flat cooking surface of this pan is actually just a tad larger than the 13" braiser and the overall interior diameter and height of the domed lid is just a tad smaller. (Imeasured side by side)
I got 10 2" thick lamb chops into this pan. Seared em', deglazed then added the magic ingredients, popped in the oven with lid and braised.
Delicious!!!!!!
Sautese = higher sides makes good for frying chicken - if you do
Braiser = probablly better for a larger quantity but even that might not be so because while the braisers sides flare out they are shorter. The sautese sides go straight up and are higher.
All depends on what you are cooking I suppose
Also the sautese has a lip around the edge which helps in pouring without dripping.
Lastly it is roughly $25 less
May all your meals be joyous!
