The Best of The Best in Pots & Pans

In other words, cookware brands that are widely renowned in the home cooking and restaurant industry. We have tirelessly quality-tested (ahem, cooked delicious food in) each item to confirm they are genuinely the best.

Casseroles, Cocottes & Stock Pots

A necessary tool for soups, curries, fried chicken (or other good deep-fried things), and big batches of pasta sauce, you can also use the oven-safe varieties to bake bread in. If you’re having people over for dinner, or feeding a family on a regular basis, then these are indispensable—and they can go right from oven or stove to table (just make sure you put it on a trivet).

Cookware Sets

Perhaps you’re moving, or ready for a total kitchenware overhaul in which you say tata to the battered-up plastic cutting boards or blunt-beyond-saving knives you’ve accrued over the years. That’s where our Cookware Sets can help. We’ve got bundles that cover the basics, roasting, and the whole enchilada.

Frying Pans, Skillets & Griddles

This is the category of pans you’ll reach for so often that it’s best you keep a few different sizes handy, and if you love to cook, have it in more than one material. Nonstick is great for sliding omelettes onto a plate or upturning tahdig rice, and cast-iron gives beef or Brussels sprouts a char whether you throw it on a barbecue, in the oven or not. Give it a shake and toss its contents in the air, that’s amore.

Roasting Pans

These are the pans that fall firmly into the domain of your oven. Whether you choose oval or rectangular (both are handy), stainless steel or copper, these dishes are best for all things baked (like gratins and lasagna) and, well, *roasted*. Meats, especially ones that release a lot of juice, like turkey or lamb feel at home here, as do potatoes, squash, and other veggies that need gentle heat to crisp up.

Saucepans

Like frying pans, saucepans are one of the most essential pieces a kitchen can have. This is, after all, the most essential tool for boiling pasta (and making...sauce). It tends to be more of an accessory in cooking than the dish you bring out to the table, so function (multiple sizes, comfortable handles, the metal core that’s compatible with your kitchen) is key.


Saute Pans

With the wideness of skillets and the height of saucepans, saute pans are great for searing meat and making a pan sauce; sauteing onions and garlic before adding a bulk of carbs, be it rice or pasta; braising anything. If a food is equal parts solid and liquid, the saute pan is its best friend, especially if it has a lid.
