Kitchen Aid Cookware: All-Clad Stainless 10 Piece Cookware Set Review

This is a foundation set of high quality cookware, suitable for any serious home cook.With stainless steel exteriors over aluminum cores, the pots distribute heat evenly, yet the cooking surfaces are non-reactive. While they do not have non-stick coatings, when used as directed (preheating oil in the pans before adding food to be fried), food usually doesn't stick to the pans, and you certainly don't have to worry about Teflon flaking off into your food.The stainless steel surfaces are also easy to clean.

If you are used to cheaper cookware, there are a few differences with these pots that you will need to get used to.First, since the pots are heavier than single-layer pots, the balance point for pouring a pot with one hand is right up against the pot itself, rather than out along the handle. And since the handles are solid steel, that means you will definitely need to use a pot holder for pouring, although you can usually touch the handles bare handed if you're simply moving the pots around on the stove.Also, the handles for the lids are steel, so you need to use a pot holder just to lift a lid (and remind visitors to do the same, so that they don't burn their hands).While the cookware is made in the Canonsburg, PA, the lids are marked "Made in China."
