I would also appreciate recommendations for safe stainless cookware.

Some water spots from condensation and regular use seem to stay on no matter how careful I am. I’ve tried scrubbing with soap and also stainless steel sprays like simple green, but some spots remain.

I recently purchased the 13-piece Calphalon cookware and have been having trouble with items sticking. I would like to avoid adding the extra fat and calories of olive oil and was wondering if cooking spray is okay to use. Any other advice is helpful…

I have some copper bottom pans that are non-magnetic and want to know if they are aluminum or austenitic stainless steel (the only steel that is non-magnetic). Is there an easy way to tell?

Mike asked:


My fiance and I are getting together our gift registry, and one of the main items is cookware. We decided to rule out All-Clad, primarily because of the price, and have narrowed our selection down to Calphalon and Cuisinart sets. We prefer stainless steel over non-stick.

It would be great if people could provide some insight into which set is better, or any experience you’ve had with either brand.

Thanks!

I make sure I don’t use metal on them and before I start cooking, I preheat the pans and use oil in them before adding potatoes. I am just puzzled. Potatoes keep sticking no matter what I have tried. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I’ve been using regular diswashing soap and it seems to work okay but I just am still cautious about using a brillo pad on the materials.
