AL DENTE - PASTA COOKER - SERAFINO ZANI

With Al Dente, the genius of Konstantin Grcic focuses on the world of cooking, designing this series of pots, casseroles, and pans in stainless steel with a very precise and impactful design. The classic cylindrical shape of the pot finds a new characterization, thanks to the inclined profile of the handles and their large size, designed to make the grip safer and to be a strong graphic sign, and thanks to the design solution of the lid housed in the body of the pot, which thus closes safely.

Perfect for all induction, gas, electric and glass-ceramic hobs. Al Dente re-proposes the characteristics of Serafino Zani’s production – use of high-quality and thick materials, attention to detail and finishing, use, on all fire pieces, of the special Zani encapsulated heat-diffusing base (US patent) – reviewed from Grcic’s point of view. Good Design Award 2010.

Practical basket with holes. The basket is equipped with holes to favor the recirculation of boiling water and therefore guarantee optimal cooking of the pasta. It guarantees quick draining in a simple gesture.
Wide Handles. The wide handles allow for a secure, sturdy grip when draining or pouring pasta.

Love for things done well, attention to the relationship between the beauty and functionality of the object, search for an innovative and original design: this is perceived when cooking with a pot made in Italy by Serafino Zani.

Serafino Zani still manufactures its pots and pans in the company in Lumezzane, Brescia, using only high-quality stainless steel (inox 18/10). This material is the only one that guarantees maximum hygiene in contact with food, almost eternal durability and extreme ease of cleaning and maintenance.

Steel is used in all components and details, and is always applied in generous thicknesses that guarantee excellent heat distribution and non-deformability over time. All steel fire pieces are equipped with a special heat-diffusing base patented by Tarcisio Zani - USA patent 4204607 - composed of a pure aluminum core 'imprisoned' inside a double stainless steel bottom. The use of this base allows for optimal heat distribution on the body of the pan with minimal energy expenditure, and the possibility of using the utensils on gas, electric plate, glass ceramic and induction.
All handles are designed to slow down the transmission of heat, paying attention to the materials, shapes, and surfaces in contact with the body of the pan.

The lid is housed in a cone that prevents it from jumping during cooking and from letting steam escape, wasting heat.
Serafino Zani's design philosophy has always been based on aesthetic-technological research and maximum satisfaction of the end user, through the creation of everyday objects that are high quality, pleasant to use and that do not create discomfort or maintenance difficulties. The pots and pans produced by Serafino Zani are thus objects of high design, with high thicknesses (synonymous with resistance and durability), with excellent and accurate finishes, which allow ease of use and cleaning.
