Select cookware that suits your cooking preferences, whether you prefer non-stick pans for easy cleanup or heavy-bottomed pots for slow cooking.

Invest in cookware that can multitask, such as pots and pans that can go from stovetop to oven, or pieces that can be used for different cooking techniques.

Opt for cookware in a range of sizes to accommodate different recipes and serving sizes, from small saucepans for sauces to large stockpots for soups and stews.

Pay attention to the design and ergonomics of the cookware handles, ensuring they are comfortable to hold and stay cool during cooking to prevent accidents.
