Why choose 18/10 stainless steel?

• Our stainless steel double boiler is made of 18/10 stainless steel with its higher nickel content is nonporous and nonreactive; that is, it doesn’t corrode when it comes into contact with acidic ingredients such as lemon juice, tomatoes or wine, vinegar nor does it gives an o -taste to foods.
• Stainless steel is durable, resists denting and scratching and holds its shine even after years of cleaning. However, stainless steel lacks good heat conducting qualities. To be e ective for cooking, stainless steel must be combined with more e cient heat transmitting metals such as aluminium or copper.
