Size

The size of a pan is indicated by its diameter ( for round pans) or width ( for square pans). For sets containing objects of different sizes, values for all objects are given in this paragraph.

The volume of the pan directly depends on the size (see below). At the same time, it is also determined by depth; In fact, this means that dishes with the same capacity can vary in size. In such cases, when choosing, it is worth considering that a wider pan heats up faster and more evenly, but requires a larger burner. Actually, the size of the pan should not be less than the size of the burner; this is especially important if you plan to use the dishes on an electric stove.

The smallest pans, sold individually, are 16 cm or less in size, in the largest this figure can exceed 25 cm. As for sets, their sizes can be quite varied: in the smallest sets, the diameter of the largest pan is less than 20 cm(although other types of dishes can be larger), in the largest sets, the size is the same 20 cm(or even more) has the smallest pan.

Volume

Working volume (capacity) of the pan. For sets (see "Type"), which include dishes of different sizes, values are given in this paragraph for all items.

A large volume allows you to cook a large amount of product at a time, but it affects the dimensions and weight of the pan. Therefore, the optimal capacity for different cases will also be different — depending on the amount of cooking and the type of dish. So, for classic pots, 3 – 4 L is considered a universal option: in such dishes it is convenient to cook soups and compotes for an average family. Models with a capacity of 2 – 3 liters are also popular — they are convenient for cooking side dishes, as well as small amounts of cooking (for 1 – 2 people). The smallest pans have a volume of less than 1 liter, they are suitable, in particular, for boiling eggs and heating milk. And the largest ones contain more than 10 liters, such dishes are designed mainly for catering and public events.

There are also more detailed recommendations on the choice of volume, including for other types of dishes — ladles, milk jugs, etc. (see "Type"); these recommendations can be found in special sources.

Kit contents

Cookware included in the set (see "Type") other than the pot(s) itself. Such cookware usually uses the same materials and coatings as the pan itself; therefore, these parameters are specified as common to the entire set. Specific types of items can be as follows:

Frying pan. A classic frying pan designed primarily for frying food.

Saucepan. Dishes that combine the features of a frying pan and a saucepan; in fact — a type of frying pan with high vertical walls and a flat bottom. It is intended mainly for stewing, sautéing, preparing sauces and gravy, as well as other types of cooking that use a lot of liquid and a large wall height is important. However, the use of stewpans for frying is also quite possible.

Brazier. Dishes in the form of a low saucepan with a tight-fitting lid; some of these pans strongly resemble the stewpans described above, differing from them mainly in their greater height and paired handles. The brazier, usually, warms up faster and more intensively than a conventional pan, which allows you not only to cook, but also to fry various foods in it; and a tight lid allows you to keep the evaporation inside, so that the finished dish is fragrant. These features are indispensable when cooking some dishes, in particular, pilaf. But for "slow" cooking, braziers are not suitable.

Steamer.... A device for cooking various dishes for a couple. For more information about this method, see "Type", here we note that in sets, a double boiler usually does not look like a separate dish, but a removable basket, which is installed in one of the complete pans.

Bucket. Classic bucket with a long handle; for more details about it, see "Type", but here we will only say that sometimes it is more convenient to purchase such a vessel in a set, and not separately.

— Teapot. Usually — an ordinary kitchen kettle, designed to boil water on the stove. It is made in the same style as the pans, so it fits better into the set of dishes than a kettle bought separately.

Pads on the handles. The presence of appropriate pads in the configuration allows you to safely, without fear of getting burned, take on the handles of the pan. At the same time, if necessary, they can be removed, and used utensils in the oven.

Basket for frying. A wire mesh basket attachment that allows the pot to be used as a fryer. To do this, a basket with fried foods is immersed in liquid oil heated in a saucepan, and when ready, it is removed.

Stand. Stand made of a special heat-insulating material, most often Bakelite. You can put a hot pot or other utensil on such a device without fear of damaging the surface underneath. Note that in sets (see "Type") there may be several coasters, but there are often fewer of them than the main items. However, when cooking, only 1 – 2 dishes are usually used at a time, so even this amount is enough in most cases.

Kitchen appliances. Various appliances used in cooking: ladles, spatulas, chef's spoons, meat forks, skimmers, etc. Among other things, complete appliances are convenient because they are made in the same style as dishes — this will be appreciated by those who seek to neatness in the design of the kitchen.
