stockpots
Broth-making vessels
Stockpots are large, deep cooking pots designed for making stock, soup, or broth.
Their tall, narrow shape minimizes evaporation during long simmering.
The size accommodates bones, vegetables, and water in quantity: She keeps two stockpots going in the restaurant kitchen.
Home cooks use smaller versions for soups and pasta.
