Great article, similar to what I’ve read from http://www.ledomaine.com.au/blog/2011/02/how-to-choose-and-buy-cookware/ too. I personally love cast iron cookware the most coz of durability, they just don’t wear and tear as much as the others. Raise my attention to titanium cookware though – never seen much of those around here!

Hello Ganka. Thanks for the note, you made me smile. I got the pans handed down to me from mother and with that great experience, I started my own nonstick kitchen pieces and I love it. You’re right, not just easy companion but healthy as well. Your words are inspiration. Thank you and all my best to you. Vanessa

I agree with you, Vanessa. The nonstick cookware is very easy to clean and maintain. It is also healthy as we do indeed need to use less fat during cooking.

To me, I find a nonstick cookware advantageous. Food doesn’t stick to the pans while cooking which makes clean up very easy. You can cook foods with less fat than you would need to use with uncoated cookware. For as long as you don’t bring your pan to extreme high heats, I believe it’s safe. Great blog. Thanks.

I just want to say that I found your kitchen blog via Yahoo and I am glad I did. Keep up the good work… I will subscribe to your RSS feed when I have more free time away from the books.

I switched to a basic wok that a friend bought in Chinatown for me. It’s simple, no-nonsense and BIG. It has a flat bottom but I fantasize about getting one of those rings to put on the burner and getting a rounded bottom.

Hi Maurine,

Please read the above mentioned pages about aluminum and titanium cookware to see what kind of non-stick pots and pans I recommend. At the moment I am using Berndes cookware (a leading manufacturer of world class aluminum cookware) and I am very happy with the results.

It is normal that food sticks to stainless steel pans.

Regards,

Ganka

I have a set of stainless Logistina cook ware. The pots are good, but the frying pan is awful. Every time I use it even with oil to prevent sticking it always sticks. Does this happen with other stainless frying pans?

My cast iron is good for some things, but forget frying fish. It gets too hot and the second round of fish gets the blackened bits remaining on the pan from the first batch, it seems to absorb so much oil and then I need to add more or it will burn.

I am looking for a good line of frying pans that will last a long time. I want to fry with little oil or fat and I don’t like when the surface of the pan scratches off and bits may end up in the food.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thank You

The only place to find authentic Wagner and Griswold cast iron products is through http://www.americanculinarycorp.com. Don’t be fooled by cheap imitations sold online and through eBay.

Nice review of a wide variety of kitchen cookware choices available. I personally own some of each, but use stainless steel for my basic cooking needs.
