I love to cook, but I’ve never invested in a set of pots. Picking a set of pots is a very difficult task, there are so many options at so many different price ranges, with such varying reviews. I love the way stainless steel looks, but everyone in reviews seems to be dissatisfied with their ability to be cleaned easily. So, I switched to looking at easier clean options, like the Rachel Ray ones above. These are all on the small side for me, so I think I’d like to complete the set with the below 5-quart pan.
The other plus about this set is that is seems to be fairly lightweight. I love my Le Crueset dutch oven more than any other kitchen item, but it’s so heavy it’s not great for me when I’m boiling or braising, since it’s heavy for me when draining liquids out of the pan.
I’m also loving this block of knives. We have a mishmash of random knives we’ve picked up over the years, but since I cook so much, it would be so much more handy to grab these counter top ones, rather than digging for knives in drawers (ouch!).
My sister would say: “naaah too expensive. So you´re a “cook”? How about a Dane Cook DVD?” Sisters -.-
