The Northvale collection offers the versatility required to simmer, sauté, braise, bake and serve everyday meals in beautifully-coated, matte-finished pots and pans. * MADE FOR EVERYDAY COOKING: Cast aluminum cookware provides excellent heating to deliver evenly-cooked dishes. Built for durability and everyday use, this sauté pan features a special, soft square shape to accommodate more ingredients and family-style servings of stews and soups. The four, rounded corners function as gentle pour spouts to smoothly transfer the last bits of food or excess oils into another container. * HEALTHY NONSTICK COATING: Made without PFOA, PTFE, lead, cadmium or other "forever chemicals", the ceramic nonstick coating offers a healthier alternative to cooking. The smooth interior has an easy-release property to help food slide off the nonstick surface when it's time to mix, scoop and clean. * COOK AND CARRY: Sturdy handles offer a comfortable and balanced grip to easily transition from prepping and cooking to serving and entertaining. * INDUCTION SAFE: Compatible with induction, gas, electric, halogen and ceramic stovetops * SELF-BASTING LID: Raised nubs are intentionally crafted underneath the cast iron lid to create a rich, self-basting environment. As the lid allows heat to circulate and retain steam, the nubs collect the moisture during condensation, then redirects it back onto the food to cook low-and-slow recipes wiith fall-off-the-bone results. * PUT A BOW ON IT: Wrap and put a bow on this beautiful piece of cookware to give as a birthday, anniversary or housewarming gift. Throw in a few cooking tools, a cookbook or a pair of oven mitts for good measure! * OVEN SAFE: Up to 350²F * CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Dishwasher safe, hand wash recommended
