How I Use A Cuisinart Stock Pot

I find I use my stock pot particularly useful because it is the largest pot in my pantry.   I like the large 6 qt size of stock pot as I more often than not, cook double quantities of soups, stews, chilis, or to make stock, and frequently put serves away in the  freezer for another day.  It's about efficiency in the kitchen.

Always use the large stock pot like this one from Cuisinart to cook long pasta. You see, the key to perfectly cooked long pasta, is to have lots of water roiling over the pasta. If cooked with insufficient room to move in the water, long pasta ends up cooked unevenly and some bits will be gluggy.

As you know, I don't believe in too much equipment in the kitchen, just quality equipment that is practical and useful to cooking quickly and efficiently.  So, I use a large sized stock pot just like this Cuisinart item to mix cake and cookie batters! It is perfect as it has a stable base and is large enough to maneuver double quantities of cake batter.
