Features and types
AGNELLI pots in the catalogue share a common structure: the body in Aluinox 3 Ply, which is a three-ply sandwich made of aluminium and stainless steel. This type of construction guarantees excellent thermal conductivity from the aluminium combined with the resistance and ease of cleaning of stainless steel on surfaces in contact with food and heat.
High saucepans
AGNELLI high saucepans are available in sizes from 16 cm up to 32 cm in diameter. They are available both in the version with 2 handles in stainless steel (suitable for safe movement even with generous amounts of liquid) and with 1 handle for more agile use on the hob. The High Hammered Aluinox 3 Ply Saucepan 24×16 cm and the 28×18 cm Polished Stainless Steel version are two key choices for those looking for a pot with good capacity for soups, ragù or boiling.
Low saucepans
Low saucepans — or rondò — come in sizes 16, 20 and 24 cm. Here too you will find both finishes, hammered and polished, with a choice between 1 or 2 handles. They are designed for reduction cooking, sauces or braised second courses that require a wider and less deep shape compared to a high saucepan.
Roasting pans
AGNELLI Aluinox Hammered 3 Ply roasting pans are offered in sizes 24×6 cm e 28×6 cm, both with 2 stainless steel handles. Their low and wide shape makes them suitable for browning meat, cooking vegetables in a pan or preparing baked dishes (check compatibility with your oven before purchasing).
Frying pans
AGNELLI Aluinox Hammered 3 Ply frying pans are available in diameters 24 cm e 28 cm, with 1 stainless steel handle. They are the direct choice for frying, eggs or fish in the pan. The single handle makes handling easier during cooking on the hob.
Lids
The range is completed with lids in diameters 16, 20, 24 and 28 cm, with stainless steel knob. Each lid can be matched to saucepans and roasting pans of the same size in our catalogue.
How to choose the right AGNELLI pot
We selected these AGNELLI ranges for our customers precisely because they cover the most common needs of home cooking: from a small pan for sauces to a large saucepan for cooking for the whole family.
- For the size: choose the diameter in cm roughly equal to double the number of people at the table for water-based cooking (e.g. 20 cm for 2–3 people, 24 cm for 4, 28+ cm for 6 and above). For roasts and braised dishes, go for a high saucepan.
- For the finish: the Hammered reduces signs of use over time; thePolished Stainless Steel has a more linear and classic appearance.
- For the handle: the 2 handles guarantee stable transport with liquids; the single handle is more practical for stirring during cooking.
- For cooktops: compatible with induction, gas, electric and glass-ceramic (always check the individual product sheet).
- For gift occasions: an AGNELLI Aluinox Polished high saucepan is a lasting gift for weddings, new homes or birthdays.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are AGNELLI Aluinox pots suitable for induction?
Yes: the external stainless steel surface is magnetic and compatible with induction hobs. Always check the individual product sheet for confirmation.
What is the difference between a high saucepan and a low saucepan?
The high saucepan is suitable for boiling, soups and broths. The low saucepan (rondò) has a wider bottom: ideal for reduction sauces and braised dishes.
How do you clean AGNELLI stainless steel pots?
Warm water and neutral detergent; avoid abrasive metal scourers. For limescale or stubborn residue, use white vinegar diluted in water. Check dishwasher compatibility on the product sheet.
Which lid sizes should I match to AGNELLI saucepans?
Lids are available in diameters 16, 20, 24 and 28 cm: simply match the diameter to the corresponding pan or saucepan.
