How often does more of your dinner end up stuck to the bottom of the saucepan than on your plate? Maybe it’s time to invest in some new cookware.
Stainless steel is a good option because it is not only strong and hard, it’s also non-corrosive and most importantly, affordable. Make sure to look for one that’s mixed with aluminium or copper for more even heat distribution.
We’ve done the hard work and rounded up our favourite stainless steel saucepans for you.
