Choosing within the Series 1000 Stockpots collection

Catering stockpot or braiser, what's the difference?

The catering stockpot is tall: it suits stocks, broths, soups, pasta, blanching — all preparations that require a large volume of water or long covered simmering. The braiser is shallow: it is intended for braises, daubes, tagines, slow cooking with less liquid and more bottom surface.

Which size to choose?

In everyday professional kitchens, Ø 24 cm is the versatile size (4 to 6 portions), 28 cm covers medium services (10-15 portions), 36 cm is for brigades and institutional kitchens. In semi-pro or enthusiast home kitchens, 20 and 24 cm cover a full station.

Induction compatibility and care?

The sandwich heat-diffusing base includes a ferromagnetic plate: the Series 1000 is designed for induction and also works on gas, electric and ceramic. 18/10 stainless steel is dishwasher-safe; manual degreasing after intense cooking preserves the shine.

Why is the Series 1000 Paderno's reference?

The Series 1000 has been Paderno's historic line for decades. Its modularity (lids interchangeable with sauté pans and saucepans), its pro-thickness stainless steel and its standardisation to Italian dimensions make it a benchmark in quality catering.
