| A two-piece brushed stainless steel multi-purpose cooking and steaming pot. 7 1/2 quart stock pot. According to Nigella Lawson: This pot has a deep-seated meaning for me: it’s inspired by a couscoussier – the traditional two-piece pot, the stew braised in the curved vessel underneath, the couscous steamed in the perforated pan above – that my late sister, Thomasina, gave to me as a house-warming present for my first home 20 years ago now. I’ve lived in several places since, but everytime I move I don’t feel it’s home until I have my pot sitting on the stove. It never lives in the cupboard: it presides cosily, and yet magisterially, over the kitchen, and by extension the home. It wouldn’t be worth putting it away anyway: I use it just too often. The big curved pan is perfect for long pasta, for stews, for soups, for stocks and just about anything. And although I do use the top part for couscous occasionally, most often I use it to steam vegetables and even old-fashioned English puddings. This pot is as useful as it is beautiful: a real heirloom item and one that comes from the heart.” Dimensions: 14.5 H x 12.75 W x 10.5 D
