Steel Cookware

Steel cookware is a classic kitchen element, and every kitchen should have a few steel pots for the basics. If you are building a cookware collection from scratch, there are five types of pans you need. Start by finding a reliable, large, stainless steel frying pan with high sides and a smaller one for sandwiches, eggs and other foods. You also need one and two-quart saucepans for cooking vegetables and sauces. A dutch oven is the fifth important piece of cookware on the list and is used for making soups and stews. Make sure you have covers and lids for all of your pans, and begin enjoying your new steel cookware to serve up tasty dishes to your family and guests.
