Cooking with Pots and Pans

Take care of your non-stick pans by hand washing where possible, and avoid washing them with anything abrasive.

Your pots and pans will get plenty of use, so it’s no good chucking them into a cupboard willy-nilly: make some space in your kitchen units and make sure you can access the items you use most often.
