A Nice Set if You Need a Set
I'm not a big fan of buying cookware in sets. So what if they match? Are you staging your kitchen for a Better Homes & Gardens photo shoot, or are you cooking in it? What makes a good saute pan doesn't necessarily make a good sauce pan, or a good baking sheet.
But as sets go, this one is one of the better ones I've seen.
I'm really not a fan of non-stick coatings. Many of these so-called miracle coatings have been proven by time to be quite bad. One little scratch, or one time with the heat too high, and suddenly you're leaching something harmful into your food, which is now sticking anyway. This cookware uses DuPont Autograph? 2 non-stick coating which appears to be quite solid. The marketing says it's scratch resistant, and you can use metal utensils in it, but only time will tell.
This cookware is a very heavy-gauge, anodized aluminium. That means you'll get good heat distribution, and over time, it should resist warping, but you still will need to...
Review Anolon Bro0nze Non-stick 9-piece Cookware
In reviewing this cookware set, I want to be a little careful. For me, the best test of cookware is time. The cookware set that made me meals when I was 5 (my mother's) are still in use and the food is just as good. Rather than point out how pretty this cookware set is (its very pretty and looks gourmet), I want to take a different route to my review.
First of all, Anolon has been making gourmet cookware since 1989. I believe they take their name from the anodozied surface process that makes their cookware nonstick. If you are not familiar with the brand Anolon, it is owned by Meyer Corp which also owns the brands for Circulon, Farberware, KitchenAid, Silverstone and Bonjour, all high quality names.
The process by which pots and pans are made non-stick is call anodization, which isn't cheap but does make the cookware very durable. The surface process is prepped and sealed in a way that metal is strengthen. Anodization is electro-chemical, where aluminum is...
Great Pots
I really like cooking in these pots. They cook food evenly as well as durable.I have used them from frying a chicken to making soups ,pastas and gravy.U think the bakeware pans are a great added bonus as well. These pans are great for a cookie sheet or placing something on top ,like a glass baking dish. I am very surprised how well they clean up .They make special sponges for these pots so they do not get scratched. I will be using these for my holiday cooking this year as well.The only probem I had is the place where the silicone is (the handles) do get very hot need potholders to handle.Other then the color is not as bright as the picture. The pots are a great value and will last a long time .
