i was drawing the line at casseroles. IMO a pan needs a handle.

otherwise i’ve got a lasagne dish and a tagine and fuck knows what else that are all pseudo-pans

#13

Sorry @Elaina_Casoolare

#14

#15

#16

Think it’s a tefal non stick one, black, handle, medium sized.

#17

Own:

small saucepan
medium saucepan
large stockpot
medium frying pan
medium skillet
very small frying pan (novelty the tv insisted we buy)
medium casserole dish
larger shallower casserole dish
large saute pan (doubles as a wok)

#18

Moving house soon and will be with no more housemates who don’t take care of things. So I get to restock my shelves. My plan:

  • Cast iron/oven safe frying pan (meat & etc)
  • Generic cheapish tefal non-stick x2 (veggies, eggs)
  • 2 x saucepan (thick heavy bottom, one big one small)
  • shallow casserole dish
  • deep casserole dish
  • wok

Reckon that’s my lot

#19

thank you.

i always stayed away from tefal stuff because [SOMEONE] would use a metal fork on it and scratch all the non-stick stuff and it would be a disaster. live on my own now so am able to look after my pans. maybe i need tefal back in my life?

#20

so a saute pan is like a shallow saucepan with curvy sides?
