Now Your Cooking: Pots And Pans
The kitchen is probably one of the most important rooms in the home. The reality of this statement is because not only is it where the meals are prepared, but can be a gathering place for the family and family get togethers.
In addition, there are many pieces of equipment and accessories that are essential for the modern day cook. Some of those items could include a dishwasher, stove, refrigerator, etc.
However, critical accessories are pots and pans. These kitchen pots and pans are essential for a number of reasons. Some of those reasons include their function, ease of use and cleanup following the meal.
Function Of Pots and Pans
Obviously, the function of pots and pans is to allow the cook to prepare food. This is accomplished by placing the raw food into the pot or pan and then cooking that food utilizing heat. The food, that is placed in the pot and pan can either be cooked on the stove top or placed in the oven.
However, another use for pots and pans is to decorate the kitchen. Specifically, there are individuals who choose to have decorative kitchens and yet working kitchens. They accomplish this look by choosing to hang their pots and pans from racks or hooks that are constructed within the kitchen.
These pots and pans are then within easy reach for the cook to utilize as well as providing a decorative flair to the kitchen. Pots and pans that are especially conducive to this look are copper pots and pans and beautiful shiny stainless steel or aluminum cookware.
Ease Of Use
In addition, when selecting kitchen pots and pans, it is important to select a set of cookware that matches the cook's style of cooking and food that is enjoyed. For example, if the family enjoys their vegetables and likes to eat stir fry, a must would be a 10 or 14 inch skillet.
Another type of cooking pot that may need to be included in a pot and pan set would be a pasta cooker. Generally these types of pots are deep and can accommodate the cooking of spaghetti.
Cleanup
Another feature that one may look for when selecting a pot and pan set is the ease of cleanup after the cooking has been done. Specifically, one may choose from a variety of non stick cooking surfaces. Two of those non stick cooking surfaces include Teflon and silicon.
Generally, these types of coating do not allow the food to stick to the surface of the utensil. This convenience allows for easy cleanup.
My Favorite Kitchenware
I have been cooking for many years and have used a variety of kitchenware. Recently I tried some a new kind that is not only very affordable but does and outstanding job. Their products require a little bit of additional care, but if you are looking for the best kitchenware for your money than the premium quality Caphalon One Nonstick cookware.
Why Calphalon One Nonstick Is The Best Kitchenware
Calphalon One Nonstick is a revolution in nonstick durability. The inside surface features a matrix of four interlocking nonstick layers, each of which contributes to the kitchenware’s long-lasting performance. Calphalon One Nonstick delivers perfect food release with even the stickiest foods. There is no need to use added fats when cooking with Calphalon One Nonstick and low-fat cooking is a breeze. By means of an exclusive anodization process the exterior surface of Caphalon One Nonstick cookware is infused with an advanced polymer that prevents staining so that clean-up is effortless, both inside and out. These pans have been my go to kitchenware set ever since I got a set last year.
The only difficult thing with them is that you can not use a dishwasher to clean. Just soap and hot water should get the trick done. In addition you must wait until the pans are cool before attempting to clean them. Cleaning them while they are hot can ruin the finish, so wait until they cool down. At first I thought this was going to be a real problem, but the surface on the Caphalon pans is so well designed that they literally take seconds to clean. I know it may seem to be a chore to hand clean these, but think of all the room you will save in your dishwasher. In fact because of this you probably will end up actually saving time.
The best thing about these pans is how little oil it takes to cook in them. This not only helps to keep your diet low fat, but keeps your kitchen appliances clean as well. I have never been able to cook an egg as well as I can with my Caphalon pans. Eggs come out absolutely perfect every time.
If you still are convinced enough to even take a look at a Caphalon set, the last point is how relatively inexpensive they are. You can get a full set of ten pans for a couple hundred dollars. While this is not cheap if taken care of this should be the last set of pots and pans you will ever need. Hopefully you take my advice and take a look at a set today.
