Sleek, durable, and high-performing, the Tramontina Gourmet 18/10 Stainless Steel Prima 5 Qt Covered Dutch Oven is excellent for warming, boiling eggs or vegetables, or making hearty sauces, on your cooktop or in the oven--especially for larger parties. The Prima covered Dutch oven offers an elegantly styled vessel with a tri-ply base and mirror-polished exterior finish. Its tri-ply base is impact-bonded with a pure aluminum core sandwiched between a layer of 18/10 stainless steel and a layer of magnetic stainless steel, providing even heat distribution and compatibility for all cooktops-including induction. As an added detail, its modern lines feature a flared edge for easy and dripless pouring, a precision-fitted 18/10 stainless steel lid to lock in heat and nutrients, and cast stainless steel handles that are riveted for added strength and support when handling the cookware.
