Pasta Pot with Strainer Lid- 5-Quart- Red

There's nothing like a delicious plate of pasta, but cooking it can be a hassle. Once the pasta is cooked, pouring it into a strainer or colander can be clumsy, messy, and even dangerous if you spill the boiling water. Cooking pasta or any type of food that needs draining just became a whole lot safer and easier! Put away your old colander— simply put the lid with a built-in strainer on, turn it slightly to lock, and drain hot water with confidence. Made from aluminum, the pasta pot allows perfect heat conduction and the non-stick interior ensures evenly cooked pasta every single time.
