But considering its superior performance, it really is worth the price tag. For the sauté pan, I cooked 6-ounce thin, boneless and skinless chicken breasts for five to six minutes per side. In the stockpot, I made a large batch of marinara sauce with a base of onion, garlic and two 28-ounce cans of peeled tomatoes to test both capacity and flavor. And finally, in the smaller saucepan, I made four 12-minute hard-boiled eggs to test that the pan would heat and cool correctly to cook eggs with solid, bright yellow yolks. I also made long grain rice in a two-to-one water-to-rice ratio to ensure it didn’t stick to the pan and yielded fluffy, separated rice grains. The tomato sauce simmered in just over two minutes, leaving only a hint of a film on the pan when poured out.
Aside from considering the ratings of each set we researched, we also evaluated the durability and quality of each set. They also needed to fulfill aspects such as heat retention, heat distribution, and price point. Cookware takes a beating day in and day out no matter the amount of cooking experience you have. From storing gotham steel cookware sets them to the moment you’re transferring the cooked food to the table, there’s a lot of banging and clanging these products need to withstand. In the end, the cookware set you choose will depend on your needs and how often you cook. There is going to be a learning curve using your new set no matter what material you choose.
That way, you’ll have enough capacity to cook all recipes without overcrowding the pan or needing to cook multiple batches. I connected with several cookware brands and retailers to get their opinion on saucepan sizes. However, space will be much tighter if you try to cook with gotham steel cookware sets a large saucepan alongside other large skillets and pots. Smaller saucepans will not retain heat as well as larger saucepans. That’s because larger saucepans have more material to absorb and hold onto heat. And a 4-quart saucepan can cook 11 hard-boiled eggs without stacking.
