High casserole 20cm with lid

Cooking with a high casserole – thank WMF for more variety in your kitchen!

Our high casseroles with their raised edges give you fantastic results every time with all sorts of food, from fried or stewed meat to pasta and rice to vegetables. WMF high casseroles give your kitchen a bit of variety!

WMF brings a sense of German order to your kitchen!

Meat and hearty stews are at the core of the typical German diet. If you use the wrong pan however, everything can go awry quite quickly. Fat and juices spitting all over the work surface, and before you know it clearing up after the meal can take longer than the stewing itself. The high casserole puts an end to all that. Thanks to its raised edges everything remains clean and at the same time the searing and stewing results are enhanced!

Cooking food with lots of liquid is no problem for the WMF high casserole

WMF high casseroles are of course not only designed for preparing tasty meat and stews. The 10 to 13 cm high edges make them the ideal choice for preparing food with a high volume of liquid, such as soup, pasta or vegetables. The high edges mean you can mash potatoes or purée a vegetable soup inside the pot without it spilling out over the top.

Size is everything – pick the right volume and diameter

You can choose your high casserole in various diameters between 12 and 28 cm, so that you have the right size for what you want to cook. When choosing, take into account what size hob you will be cooking on.

The high casseroles also vary greatly in volume. Whereas the smaller WMF high casseroles with a capacity of 1 litre are suitable for single-person households or for cooking smaller portions, those with more mouths to feed will prefer the versions with a volume of at least 6 litres. Models with a volume of between 2 and 4.2 litres are ideally suited for average use – these are often a mainstay of our cookware sets. We would recommend that you buy a range of different sizes. If your meal consists of various elements like meat, vegetables and rice, you will need several models in different sizes at the same time.

Top-quality home cooking from WMF

You will only get the best quality from WMF. The vast majority of our pots and frying pans are made from our unique Cromargan® stainless steel 18/10, which is especially long lasting and easy to care for thanks to its special alloy of chrome, nickel and steel. Many of them are equipped with the patented TransTherm® universal base, which means the high casseroles can be used on all hob types, including induction. The aluminium core contained inside serves as a conductor and distributes the heat evenly to the whole pot.

With WMF's carefully designed high casseroles you can cook like a professional and get excellent results in the kitchen every time. Give it a try and get to know our assortment of high-quality cookware!

The right lid for every pot!

Every pot comes with a matching lid. Our pots are fitted with high-tech lids which also have special functions to help you cook.

WMF pot lids have it covered.

But which lid is the right one? The lids in our collections are not only made to physically fit the pot, but they are made to look right with it as well. WMF metal lids combine safety with the high standards that the professional chef as well as the enthusiastic amateur have come to expect. The lids are in most cases fitted with hollow handles. The thermal break means the handle stays comfortable to touch when the lid is on the pot sitting on the hotplate. The lids are made from our tried-and-tested Cromargan® stainless steel 18/10 and it should go without saying that they are dishwasher safe and suitable for induction hobs. We offer lids both in matte and polished designs, meaning that you can always find the lid that goes best with your pot.

Our lids are completely watertight.

Traditional lids are in most cases made to be non-insertable. The heavy design of the lid can also reliably close the pot without hermetically sealing it. A non-insertable lid doesn't have a seal, unlike for example a pressure cooker lid, but the specially designed edge ensures a perfect fit. A number of lids have a vent hole to stop an unwanted vacuum from building up inside the pot.

Spare lids – making sure you always have the size you need!

Our lids may be robust, but no item of cookware is accident-proof. If you want to replace a lid for one of our pots then we recommend measuring the diameter of the pot just to be sure before placing your order with us. Measurements should be taken at the top inside edge if you want to be sure you're ordering the right one. Because our pots and frying pans are meticulously designed to provide a perfect fit, the measurements don't need to be exact. We sell pots in diameters from 12 to 32 cm, and you will be able to find a matching lid for any pot in our product range, whether you need a replacement or just want a spare.

Pots and lids – quality from WMF

Pots and lids come together as a perfectly harmonised unit both in our cookware sets and when bought as individual items. Choose pots with lids from our collections that aren't just functional but aesthetically pleasing as well. If you want to keep an eye on your cooking at all times then we recommend our collection of lids made from heat-resistant high-quality glass.

The better the cookware, the tastier your dinner!

Cooking is no different to any other household task: the better the tools, the easier it is to get good results. When it comes to pots this advice should particularly be taken seriously. The right cookware makes cooking a real joy!

Every pot is different – take your pick!

Nowadays any chef, whether amateur or professional, can choose from a wide range of pots. Differences in shape, construction and material make each WMF pot specially suited to its intended use.

In the WMF assortment you can find high casseroles and low casseroles as well as milk pots, pasta pots, stock pots and asparagus cookers.
