Build a Cookware Set
My husband is gifting me all new cookware. If you were to build your own set, what sizes, brands, and materials would you buy? I am keeping my enameled Dutch oven and my 12-inch cast iron skillets. I currently use three different-size saucepans (all anolon) on the reg and three frying pans (10-inch anolon, deep 10-inch stainless, and a large anolon braiser). I have a gas range and oven.

Hi Heather -
We would advise evaluating what you use most often and simply purchasing those pieces. Here are some general recommendations but, again, this is very dependent on personal uses and preferences:
Whatever you choose, make sure the handles are ovenproof. Many recipes require transferring from stovetop to oven and plastic handles will melt in the oven.
You can also visit our store to see some of the cookware we use here at Milk Street.
Best,
