A outstanding starter set, this 10-piece cookware collection features a nice selection of necessary pieces for any busy kitchen. It includes a 1-quart covered saucepan, a 2-1/2-quart covered saucepan, an 8-inch skillet, a 10-inch skillet, a 6-quart covered stockpot, and a 3-quart covered saute pan. The saucepans come in handy for making breakfast oatmeal or homemade marinara sauce, the skillets offer gently curved sides for flipping feed or sliding an omelet or grilled cheese sandwich effortlessly from the pan to a plate, and the stockpot works well for making vegetable soup, beef stew, or boiling pasta. The included saute pan functions like a skillet, but it is wide base meets tall, straight sides for extra depth and capacity–exceptionally commodious when making one-dish meals. Start by sauteing onions and browning meat in the saute pan, then add liquid and other ingredients to finish on the stovetop or in the oven.
