Enamel Cookware

[LisaR]

Does anyone own any enamel cookware? How do you like it? In some of the reviews I have read, it says that you can't stack enamel pans because they will get scratched up. Do you find that to be true? Any brand you recommend (or don't recommend)? Thanks!

I have several pieces of Le Crueset. I grew up with my Mom cooking with it. In fact she still has the pots and they look brand new even though they are well lets just say they are over 30 yrs old. These pots always reminded me of cozy meals in the kitchen with everyone (7 siblings) around the table laughing and eating . She made awesome pot roasts, beef stews, chili and Itialian gravy in these pots. She also used them to deep fry.

They are awesome pots. Perfect fo long slow cooked foods like pot roast, chili, stews. They hold heat really well and clean up really well. We stack them with no trouble. The only thing I'd say is be careful with metal spoons or spatula they could scratch. I use wood spoons or rubber coated caphalon type utensils. Although I have used metal with no problem I just don't scrap with it.

They also are really nice looking. I have several pieces of Flame and cobalt blue. I love them and wouldn't give then up. But be aware they are heavy.
