Cookware Sets represent an important investment.
Plus, they are something that you will likely use every day.
When choosing the right set for your family, consider your cooking style, the pot sizes
you use, the number of pieces you'll require and your preference for construction and materials.
Many at-home chefs prefer Stainless Steel for its classic beauty and rust-free durability.
You can also safely use most metal utensils.
For even heat distribution and reduced hotspots, consider the benefits of a multi-ply or Clad
set.
Clad Technology bonds a core of aluminum between layers of steel to enhance the even distribution
of heat.
Bi-Clad cookware combines all the benefits of Stainless Steel on the interior surface
with a hard Anodized Aluminum layer on the outside.
You get immediate heat transfer, even distribution and incredible strength and durability.
Traditional Cast-Iron cookware is available pre-seasoned which helps prevent food from
sticking. It is also safe to use high heat -- ideal for searing meats.
Heat retention is excellent due to the thick base and walls.
These benefits are also shared with modern Cast-Iron Enameled cookware which looks great
and can also be used for serving.
Aluminum cookware transfers heat extremely fast and is generally non-stick coated for
easy clean-up and use.
Value priced aluminum models are usually stamped into shape and will do the basic job.
Premium Hard Anodized Aluminum models feature outstanding strength that's nearly twice
as hard as Stainless Steel.
Cast Aluminum models are also considered premium and are often chosen for their extra thick
base, walls and rims.
Some Aluminum models feature a steel base plate for durability and compatibility with
induction cook-tops.
Non-stick interior surfaces provide easy clean-up and the option for oil and fat reduced cooking.
Look for them on both aluminum and steel models.
Choose from traditional non-stick coatings or modern, environmentally friendly ceramic
surfaces that are manufactured PFOA and PTFE free.
With so many options to choose from, it's good to know that you can find the perfect
cookware set for your needs at Canadian Tire.
