The Tramontina Professional Fusion 5.5 Qt. covered deep fryer set features the exclusive Fusion rivet system which provides a rivet-less, smooth interior cooking surface. This clever system provides easy cooking and effortless cleanup, while maintaining all the strength and durability of a traditional riveted handle assembly. The rivet-less cooking surface, combined with the reinforced PFOA-free nonstick, provides high performance and excellent food release. The deep fryer's heavy-gauge aluminum construction distributes heat quickly and evenly and features satin exterior finish while the solid cast stainless-steel long handle offers a removable, silicone, soft-grip. Designed and manufactured to withstand the rigors of a professional kitchen, the deep fryer set easily adapts to home and non-commercial use. The stovetop deep fryer produces perfectly fried vegetables, chicken and fish so it is the ideal tool for frying, scrambling, sauteing and searing your favorite recipes. The versatile four-piece set includes a 5.5 Qt. open chefs pan, tempered glass lid, stainless steel mesh lid and stainless steel fryer basket. The chefs pan and fryer basket are great for boiling and blanching vegetables, or for use as a traditional large capacity sauce pan with the option of the included tempered glass lid. The stainless steel fryer basket comes with a long helper handle and a hook for hanging securely on the fryer for draining while the mesh lid helps contain oil splatters.
