Caring for non-stick

Use wooden or silicone utensils to protect the coating, and avoid metal scourers. Medium heat is usually enough. Let the pans cool before washing, which protects the coating and the glass lids.

A useful starter set

Saucepans and frying pans in one matching set cover most everyday cooking, so this set suits a first home, a student flat or anyone replacing worn pans.

Choosing the right pot

Small pans suit sauces, eggs and heating milk; medium pots suit rice, vegetables and pasta for a family; large pots suit soups, curries and batch cooking. Using the right size helps food cook evenly and saves energy. A set such as the non-stick saucepan set covers all of these in one go.

Cooking tips

Heat the pan gently before adding oil, and keep the heat at medium for most cooking; heavy aluminium holds heat well. Match the size of the pan to the size of the ring on your hob. Looked after like this, the non-stick saucepan set will give years of good cooking.

Who it is for

Cookware like the non-stick saucepan set suits families, new homes and anyone who cooks every day. A matching set also makes a generous gift for a wedding, a housewarming or someone setting up their first kitchen.

Storing your cookware

Stack pots with a soft cloth or paper towel between them to protect the coating, and store glass lids separately or upright in a rack so they do not chip. Kept this way, the non-stick saucepan set stay looking good for longer.

Healthy cooking

Non-stick and heavy-based pans let you cook with only a little oil, and steaming or simmering vegetables keeps more of their goodness. Cooking at home also means you choose exactly what goes into each meal. Pans such as the non-stick saucepan set make healthy, home-cooked food easier to prepare.

Cooking for a crowd

For family gatherings and celebrations, cook rice, curries and stews a day ahead, as many dishes taste even better the next day. Cool food quickly, cover it and keep it in the fridge, then reheat it thoroughly before serving. A set like the non-stick saucepan set gives you enough pots to cook several dishes at once.

Matching the hob

Use a ring that matches the size of the pan base so heat spreads evenly up the sides, and avoid very high heat with non-stick pans, which is rarely needed. Check which hob types your pans suit before you cook. Treated well, the non-stick saucepan set will cook evenly meal after meal.
