Remember in The Wizard of Oz when did Dorothy step out of her sepia world and into a land of vibrant colors? That same sense of wonder is exactly what you’ll feel when you upgrade your crusty cookware to a sleek new set of pots and pans. “How did it take me so long with scratched frying pans?” you will wonder. But not just any set will do — you want cookware that’s durable, easy to clean, cooks evenly and looks good. Not sure where to look? In the words of Gordon Ramsay: “Don’t twist your panties!” The famous chef is a fan of HexCladthe brand behind the pans he says “cooks to absolute, utter perfection.” As if a celebrity endorsement wasn’t enough, the HexClad Stars and Stripes Promotion is offering up to 43% off its nonstick sets for Memorial Day. Some even come with complimentary gifts, and who doesn’t love a freebie?
The difference between these pans is their hybrid construction, which combines the best qualities of stainless steel, cast iron and non-stick for a unique product that, according to Ramsay, “is highly versatile and cooks exceptionally well.” They’re made from aluminum sandwiched between stainless steel for expert heat conduction and distribution, and their nonstick interiors make cleanup a breeze. Plus, the unique hexagonal engraving helps encourage darkening. So what are you waiting for? Let’s cook!
