Beautiful Gourmet Cookware
For those who consider themselves to be gourmet chefs or perhaps almost gourmet chefs you might feel you should own gourmet cookware for cooking your gourmet recipes. Even if you don't have the cooking capabilities of a gourmet chef, at least your friends and guests just might think you are a gourmet chef when they see your collection of gourmet cookware From Dacor or Bourgeat. Sure, the well know cookware collections of Calphalon and All-Clad can surely be considered gourmet collections but since they are well known in America let's take a look at a couple of brands that are not as well known.
Dacor's Signature Gourmet Cookware Collection
This collection of cookware is so beautiful you may just want to place it on your counter as a way to beautify your kitchen and impress your friends. You might feel hesitant to cook with such elegant looking pots and pans. However, if you do choose to actually use the gourmet cookware items for cooking your meals you will be very pleased with this collection due to the high standards adhered to during the design and manufacturing processes.
Dacor utilizes ‘Hot Dots' technology which utilizes pressure impact bonding of a disc made from aluminum into the base of the Dacor cookware layers. Due to these dots, heat is able to make a direct contact with Dacor's specially designed aluminum disc which heats the pans up rather quickly and distributes the heat evenly in the pans. This design gives you the quality cooking performance you would expect from gourmet cookware.
They utilize five-ply construction, 18/10 stainless steel for inside the pan and the exteriors. They are provided with ergonomically designed handles that stay cool and are triple riveted. All the cookware is dishwasher safe although Dacor suggests you hand wash the gourmet cookware in order for the pots and pans to keep their beautiful polished look. The cookware collection is also designed for use in the oven. They come with a lifetime warranty concerning defects due to workmanship and materials.
Bourget Copper Line
Bourget Cooper pans are made in France and can be found in the top restaurants all over Europe. They are constructed from heavy copper with an interior constructed from polished stainless steel. They include handles made from durable, heavy cast iron and they come with tight fitting lids made from beautiful copper. They are perhaps the prettiest copper pans available on the market. You can purchase individual items such as covered sauce pans, sauciers, braising pans, fry pans, stew pots and they are also available in cookware collections. If you are looking for high quality, beautiful gourmet cookware you might want to consider purchasing Bourgeat or the Dacor Signature collection.
