I was wondering what others on the list have found
to be good quality
cookware at a medium price available now.
I have, and like, Farberware. I got my first pots and
pans in a set over 40 years ago, and am still using
them. I managed to burn up one kettle and missed it
enough to go shopping for a replacement, thus I have
one of the newer style pot and lid. The styles have
changed a bit over the years and there's several
styles to choose from, but the basic construction is
the same.
While I like a nonstick skillet for some things, my
main pots are stainless steel. The Farberware has an
alumimum (or copper) core for quick heating, and the
stainless body for easy cleaning.
There's probably more than one brand of stainless pots
with a core of a quick heat metal. Check them out. I
suggest this basic multipurpose type of pot rather
than the all aluminum ones (too heavy). Revere Ware
is pretty but takes more cleaning to keep the copper
bottom clean. I think it has the same basic
construction of Farberware, but has the copper bottom
exposed.
The basic sets with 3 pots and 2 pans, plus lids, is
not too many pieces of cookware to have. You may want
to add a larger pot also.
Explore a kitchen store, or a large department store
that carries a range of brands. You should find
something that suits your requirements.
