COOKWARE BUYING GUIDE

Looking to get to the core of cookware? With so many options to consider, it's important to know how different types of cookware can enhance your cooking. Use this comprehensive guide to uncover the substance behind the latest stovetop styles, and be well on your way to epicurean enlightenment!

MATERIAL MATTERS

One of the best ways to categorize the quality of cookware is through its material makeup. More specifically, the type of metal used in crafting a cookware piece determines how it conducts heat. So before you start shopping, read on to find out which of our many materials will make thebest cooking companion.

STAINLESS STEEL

BENEFITS: Easy Maimtenance, Resistance To Rust, Stains & Corrosion. The cookware of choice for most culinary needs, stainless steel is easy to clean, requires little maintenance and does not react with food. Pure stainless steel, however, does not conduct heat very well. That's why it's important to look for stainless steel cookware with an encapsulated core–that is, cookware with an extra layer of copper or aluminum inside to ensure better heat distribution. Although not exclusively nonstick, it's easy to achieve many nonstick properties if used at a low to medium heat and coated with a small amount of oil or shortening.

CARE:

Some stainless steel cookware is dishwasher safe, but most manufacturers recommend hand washing
If not dishwasher safe, hand wash with warm, soapy water
Use metal, nylon or wood utensils while cooking

BOTTOM LINE: Stainless steel looks and cooks great, but be sure to check for an encapsulated core to give you that extra epicurean edge.

NONSTICK

BENEFITS: Superior Food Release, Easy Cleanup, Low-Fat Cooking. A mainstay in almost every kitchen, most people couldn't imagine cooking without the benefits of a nonstick coating. Whether it's for better food release, easier cleanup or healthier, low-fat cooking, nonstick cookware is all about convenience. Good nonstick cookware will have several layers of nonstick coating. Most pots and pans will have at least three layers, while the best can have up to seven. The more layers there are, the smoother and more resilient a surface will be. Try to avoid nonsticks with a shiny silicone coating as this type of surface will react poorly with animal fats. Remember, nonstick cookware should always have a dull finish.

CARE:

Thoroughly clean after each use to prevent oil buildup that can affect the nonstick coating
Clean with nylon scrubbing pads with warm water and a mild detergent
Never use steel wool, steel scouring pads or harsh detergents
Avoid sharp utensils while cooking as these can scratch the surface of the pan
Use plastic, rubber, silicone or wood utensils

BOTTOM LINE: While it's not necessary for all your cookware to have a nonstick surface, every kitchen should have at least one good piece of nonstick cookware.

HARD ANODIZED / ALUMINUM

BENEFITS: Lightweight, Good Heat Conductor, Durable Like Copper, Aluminum is an excellent heat conductor. It's lightweight and usually dishwasher safe. But in its purest form, aluminum tends to be soft and easy to stain. For these reasons, it's wise to be sure your aluminum cookware is hard anodized. The anodization process eliminates many of the problems associated with untreated aluminum. Not only is anodized aluminum extremely durable–resistant to chips, cracks and peeling–it also has a handsome dark finish that helps absorb and distribute heat more quickly.
