I spend a lot of time in the kitchen. With a family my size, eating out isn’t exactly ideal. Ordering in can even be quite expensive. Therefore, they’re stuck with home cooked meals. Lucky for them, I’m a good cook. Thankfully, my husband is too since he’s the one who taught me to cook about 14 years ago!
One thing that I have learned about cooking is that cookware mattes! Quality pots, pans and other cookware really make things easier and/or turn out better. When I heard about the Stax Living 3-Piece Hard Anodized 5-Quart Saute Pan Set, I was intrigued.
“This durable hard anodized cookware from Stax Living boasts twice the hardness of stainless steel for durability and offers excellent heat retention and even heat distribution. The stainless steel handles are riveted for strength and wrapped in non-conducting, soft silicone for safety and ease of use. Interior is Teflon? platinum-coated for low fat cooking and easy cleanups. The included shatter-resistant glass lid allows you to safely monitor cooking progress and is invertible so you can stack other pieces of cookware on top when not in use. The pieces in this multi-function cooking system nest to occupy the least amount of space for storage convenience. Set includes: 5-qt. saute pan, 5-qt. stainless steel steamer and a flat, tempered glass cover. Abrasion resistant, dishwasher and metal utensil safe. Suitable for use with ceramic, electric coil, and gas stovetops. Oven safe up to 400 F. Imported. Limited lifetime warranty.”
Even heat distribution? I’ve never heard of it before! The fact that it is metal utensil safe is amazing. I cannot tell you how many of my pots/pans my FIL has ruined over the years because he just cannot grasp the concept that you do not use metal in pans. Well now he can, without ruining my pans! Shhh, I didn’t tell him though!
Ok, so what’s not to love about this Stax Living 3-Piece Hard Anodized 5-Quart Saute Pan Set? Honestly, nothing. I love the fact that I can steam a whole head of cauliflower and broccoli at the same time! I always used those things that you put in the bottom of your pot before and it just never made enough. The fact that both pans are 5 quarts is amazing. It definitely comes in handy when cooking our meals.
Having a larger family, we have to double everything. Sometimes that means using two or more pans to cook in, which is a total pain if you ask me. Over the weekend, I made a delicious Ham & Bacon Skillet for breakfast. I used an entire bag of hashbrowns, 1/2 pound of bacon, large ham steak and 1.5 dozen eggs. As you can see, it all fit. There was even plenty of room for more!
I will definitely be doing the majority of my cooking in this bad boy. Of course it’s oven safe, so that is a huge bonus because I can go straight from the stove top to the oven with certain meals that call for both!
