The Ninja ZEROSTICK 26cm Stock Pot is engineered for reliable performance across a range of cooking tasks. Its core strength lies in its ZEROSTICK non-stick coating, which ensures food releases effortlessly, even with minimal oil. This makes it perfect for:
Simmering Soups and Stews: The even heating prevents scorching at the bottom, while the tempered glass lid locks in moisture for flavorful results. You can start browning ingredients directly in the pot and then add liquids to simmer.
Boiling Pasta, Potatoes, or Corn: The large capacity is ideal for boiling substantial quantities, and the even heat ensures water comes to a boil efficiently.
Preparing Stocks and Broths: Its generous size accommodates bones and vegetables, and the consistent temperature control is crucial for extracting maximum flavor over long simmering times.
Making Sauces and Reducing Liquids: The non-stick surface prevents sticking and makes stirring easy, while even heat promotes smooth reduction.
Oven-to-Hob Cooking: With oven safety up to 260°C, you can start a dish on the stovetop and transfer it directly to the oven to finish, such as braising meats or making baked pasta dishes.
The durable forged aluminium construction ensures quick and uniform heat distribution, eliminating frustrating hot spots that can lead to unevenly cooked food. The metal-utensil safe coating means you don't have to worry about damaging the surface with your regular kitchen tools, adding to its practical utility in a busy kitchen.
Before first use, wash the stock pot thoroughly with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry completely. It is recommended to condition the non-stick surface by wiping a small amount of cooking oil over the entire cooking surface with a paper towel. This step is often recommended for non-stick cookware to optimize performance.
