Comparison Peterhof PH-15728 vs Peterhof PH-15744

Cookware included in the set (see "Type") besides the pots themselves. Such cookware usually uses the same materials and coatings as the pot itself; therefore, these parameters are specified as common to the entire set. The specific types of items can be as follows:

— Frying Pan. A classic frying pan primarily meant for frying foods.

— Saute Pan. Cookware that combines features of a frying pan and a pot; essentially a type of frying pan with high vertical walls and a flat bottom. It is mainly intended for braising, sautéing, making sauces and gravies, as well as other types of cooking that involve a lot of liquid and require tall walls. However, sauté pans can also be used for frying.

— Casserole. A dish resembling a low pot with a tightly fitting lid; some of these pots closely resemble the aforementioned sauté pans, differing mainly in greater height and having paired handles. A casserole usually heats up faster and more intensely than a regular pot, allowing not only boiling but also frying various foods; the tight lid helps retain steam inside, resulting in a flavorful finished dish. These features can be indispensable for certain dishes, such as pilaf. However, casseroles are not well-suited for "slow" cooking.

— Steamer. A device for cooking various dishes using steam. For more details on this c...ooking method, see "Type"; here we note that in sets, a steamer usually appears not as a separate vessel, but as a removable basket that fits into one of the included pots.

— Ladle. A classic ladle with a long handle; for more details, see "Type." Here, we only mention that sometimes it might be more convenient to purchase such a vessel in a set rather than separately.

— Kettle. Typically, an ordinary kitchen kettle meant for boiling water on the stove. It is styled similarly to the pots, making it blend better into the cookware set than a kettle purchased separately.

— Plastic Lid. A fitting lid used not for cooking on the stove but for convenient storage and transport of ready dishes directly in the same cookware. It tightly seals the pot after cooling, helps avoid absorbing odors in the fridge, and protects the contents from accidental spills when moving the pot to a shelf or taking it with you, for example, to the country house. Unlike a glass or metal lid, plastic is usually lighter and quieter, but it cannot be subjected to heat — it's precisely a "cold" lid for household use.

— Handle Covers. Having such covers in the set makes it safe to handle pot handles without fear of burning. They can be removed if necessary, allowing the use of the cookware in the oven.

— Frying Basket. A device in the form of a basket made of metal mesh, allowing the pot to be used as a deep fryer. The basket with the frying products is immersed in liquid oil, heated in the pot, and extracted when ready.

— Trivet. A trivet made from special heat-insulating material, most commonly bakelite. Such a device can be used to place a hot pot or other cookware on without fear of damaging the surface underneath. Note that in sets (see "Type"), there may be several trivets, although often fewer than the main items. However, during cooking, usually only 1-2 pieces of cookware are used at a time, so even such a number is generally sufficient.

— Kitchen Utensils. Various utensils used during cooking: ladles, spatulas, cooking spoons, meat forks, skimmers, etc. Among other things, included utensils are convenient in that they match the style of the cookware—appreciated by those aiming for neatness in kitchen décor.
