Frying pans

Stir-fry pans

Stir-fried dishes are getting more and more popular because they can still retain the freshness of the ingredients without costing a lot of time. When you buy your stir-fry pan, it’s important to choose the ones with a deep and rounded bottom along with high walls so that the cooking oil and the food can stay focused in one area. Pans with a deep and rounded bottom will also prevent oil splatters.

Pots

Pots come in different shapes and sizes to help you cook the perfect meal for your family. For the most part, pots are used for soup dishes and come with a lid. When buying a pot, you should take into account its material, as different materials have different heat conductivity. For example, aluminum and brass pots have much higher heat conductivity than inox ones. This means that aluminum and brass pots catch heat much quicker and spread it much more evenly than inox pans. For that reason, Big C would advise you to buy aluminum and brass pots!
