+ THE REVIEW:
I’d been wanting to make the switch from traditional cookware to non toxic cookware for a while and was very torn as to which ones I should get. We all know that getting quality cookware can be a huge investment so I wanted to take the time to do my research and select ones that will last me many years. Enter Caraway.
What made me decide to initially invest in these was the price point compared to the reviews. Each pot / pan is very affordable + if you buy the entire set comprised of a fry pan, dutch oven, sauce pan and sautè pan, you also get magnetic pan storage racks and a canvas lid holder for $495 (sometimes you can get them on sale for $395), which in my opinion is the best value for money. I mean, if you’re looking to make the switch to non toxic, might as well replace your entire cookware set for a very affordable price. The only reason I did not buy the entire set was because I already had some non toxic cookware and after moving to Austin, we have limited space in our apartment. Although, I wish I had bought the entire set when I think about it in hindsight.
I was debating between the cream or sage but I am very happy with my choice. The sage color is so soothing to look at, and even more beautiful in person. The pans have a nice weight to them, without being overly heavy and I love the sleek and modern design. The lid from the dutch oven fits the over the fry pan perfectly which is an added bonus! My advice is to read the care instructions throughly before the first use. This will ensure longevity of your pots and pans, and make sure that they are looking good for years to come. I know some reviews mention paint chips, however, I have not had any issues with mine as I have been following the care instructions precisely.
Now let’s talk about the food! Cooking with these pots / pants is a dream! The ceramic coating is silky smooth and you don’t need much oil if at all. This is a great advantage for people who don’t like to cook with a lot of oil. I’ve also tried sautéing vegetables without oil on a very low heat and they cooked beautifully without sticking to the surface. Overall, I think this is a great set of cookware if you are looking to replace your existing cookware for non toxic cookware. The price point excellent for the quality, and it would make for a great investment for people who live in apartments with limited space or if you live a minimal lifestyle (the 4 pots / pans in the comlete set is really all you need). Another added plus to this cookware is that it is compatible with electric, gas and induction cooktops + is oven safe up to 550 F.

+ HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR CARAWAY COOKWARE:
- Always cook on low to medium heat. This will ensure that the ceramic coating does not over heat and deteriorate the non stick layers. I noticed that the cookware retains heat and cooks food beautifully, even at low temperatures.
- Oil sprays can ruin the ceramic coating. The cookware are naturally non stick but it you need to add oil, try using liquid oil or butter instead.
- Hand wash cookware. High temperatures from the dishwasher can have the same effects on the ceramic coating as high temperatures on a stovetop. I noticed that washing the cookware by hand was a breeze! Since thy are non stick, everything wiped off with ease!
