I had to make a snap decision today. It was do or don't so I did and I feel I made the right choice.
no chocolate milk??
what the fuck is it?
Hey /ck/
So I don't think this question has ever really been asked or at least I don't see it in the catalog.
What would you recommend for a starting set of pots and pans?
I have a kid who is leaving for college in a few weeks and it's dawned on me that he doesn't have any cookware. What does /ck/ recommend I get him?
He actually enjoys cooking, so I'd like to get him something that he'll use that won't fall apart in a semester.
His place has a gas stove
I'd like to stay under $100 or so for a smaller set
He'll be cooking for himself, and a couple other roomies. So, if they happen to use a metal spatula to flip their grilled cheese sandwiches, I'd hate to have the pan ruined by a scratch.
My thoughts so far:
Instead of getting him a cheaper set off Amazon that will be destroyed, we have a couple decently priced restaurant supply stores.
So I'd like to get him some SS NSF style pans, all the actual cooks here know what I'm talking about.
11" skillet
smaller 7-8" skillet w/ lid
10-12" saute w/ lid
2-3 qt. saucepan w/ lid
He's alrady getting a spare 2 gal. stock pot/steamer, and an old crock pot I have.
So /ck/, what do you think? What would you add?

reasonable. just buy these separately.
Anon it's obvious from your post that you know more about cookware than 99% of all posters here. Buy what you think is best. Only thing I can add: It is always possible to cook a little stuff in a big pot, but you can't cook much stuff in a small pot. Always buy bigger.
Glass lids are really nice, too.
Would you like some dill fish?

A) What have you done to that orzo?
B) Why didn't you chip the dill?

>Food items you're surprised you like
Normally I hate things that are pickled flavored that aren't pickles (like sunflower seeds), but these are pretty good
Just fried up some pork liver and it turned out a little more rare than I usually make it. I'm not gonna die right?
Probably not as long as you're living in a first world country.
>he doesn't know
Can I eat Alfredo sauce with spaghetti?
I don't wanna take a trip to the store again but I'm out of fettuccine.
Is it gonna taste the same? and how much trouble will I get into if I do it?
>>9277759
You'll probably be grounded for at least a week for making a shit thread and being a faggot OP.

Get a grip, anon. Just eat your spaghetti alfredo already.
