The Best Stock Pot
February 01, 2019
This is the largest pot I own- you’re going to need a large pot to boil large volumes of water for various pastas and soups. They don’t vary much by utility, really, so for me the best stock pot is one that has a lot of utility. I happen to like this one because it comes with a set of nested inserts that can be used both as a steaming basket and a colander to drain pasta or rinse vegetables in.
