Don't want to scratch your Teflon pans.
For pots & pans, I'd suggest the following;
Stew pot (8 Quarts/Liters or larger) with lid
2 Sauce pans 2Quart/liter with lids
Double boiler with lid
Small Frying pan
Large Frying pan with lid
Wok Preferably Teflon with high sides (Flat bottom for an electric stove, rounded for gas)
colander / Strainer
Good wooden cutting board
Good set of knives and sharpening stone (learn how to use it properly)
Roasting pan with lid
glass casserole dishes in assorted sizes with lids
Spices depend on what you like to use. I like spicy foods so I have cajean spices, Garlic Chili sauce, curry, Paprika, tarregon,
chili powder, oragano, cyanne pepper, Tabasco and Worchesteshier sauce |
