Why this pan lid earns its place
Twenty-two litres is the size you reach for when volume is the strategy. This pot doesn't move during service—it lives on a cooktop, a tilt-skillet, or a dedicated station. The 360 mm diameter (14 inches) reflects its scale: it's substantial. At 7 kg empty, it has genuine thermal mass: drop a tray of cold meat into hot braising liquor and it won't shock the temperature. The liquid cools by maybe 5°C, then steadies. That stability is what precision cooking is built on.
JYH21CT stainless steel throughout. The same material choice in large-scale hotel kitchens and central commissaries. Heat distribution is consistent, so your reductions develop properly and your stocks build real body. Works on gas, electric, ceramic, halogen, or induction—whatever your kitchen runs on, this pot adapts. The fitted lid seals tightly, trapping heat and steam, cutting boil time and energy use over a full year of daily batches.
Dishwasher-safe, no special maintenance, corrosion-resistant. A pot this size is an investment in reliability. It'll show legitimate wear—that's real working kit. After twelve months of genuine commercial use it'll have marks and scuffs that tell you it's earning its place. That's not a defect, it's certification.
