What is everyone's preferred cookware around here? I have usually preferred cast iron cookware for most things that don't involve acids but have recently started using carbon steel and prefer it for the lighter weight, longer handles and similar cooking properties. Enameled dutch oven for braising of course. I tried to stop using non-stick pans (Teflon and the like) but for certain egg and crepe recipes it just seems absolutely necessary. I would like to get a nice collection of multi-ply stainless steel / aluminum pans when I get the budget for it.

Putting your Teflon and other non-stick applied coatings come off even faster with you put them in the dish washer. I know they say they are are dish washer safe, and they probably are for the first dozen washes.

My cast iron has gotten to the point where I practically don't need oil on to fry an egg.

Be good to your body and your family an nice away from those coated pans.
