    I love your videos! And I am cuban American as well- my favorite pot is the caldero and it looks like the big one on counter. I'm 27 now and I recently inherited mine after mom passed in 2020. This one I've seen since I was a baby I've helped mom and my grandma chichi with cooking with this growing up, eventually chichi gave it to mom when we moved to tn from fl. But chichi had this long time too I've seen pictures from I think the 80s where this was sitting on the counter it's the Imusa brand one and for decades it has held up very well with lots of cooking. I definitely love it the most because of the family history with it and cooking with it is one of many ways I can feel close to my mom and grandma again ❤

    @bklyn09091 2 года назад +2

    Great video!! I have a different brand of Hard anodized for about 15 years, and it's still as good as day 1. However, I got a lovely set from Chef Curtis Stone about 4 years ago, and wow, I'm still been blown away. Pretty much replaced everything including my le creuset cast iron. They are amazing! He also has a griddle. As for the Calderon, yes it's a kitchen staple, However I've been looking for an all stainless steel 1 vs our typical Aluminum. Anyone have any suggestions?? Thank you for all you do. Keep being great 👍

    Man, I never thought a kitchen in New York could look that beautiful as a background for cooking videos. Given how that kitchen looks, that apartment is definitely NOT cheap.
    Great video though. I wish you would have stated if all that cookware is compatible with induction and electric stoves along with if the cookware needs to be seasoned but, I'll just do more research on them. I know IMUSA is compatible with an electric stove, and is definitely a good choice, because the one IMUSA caldero I have has been great so far.
    I recently bought a Granitestone Diamond aluminum frying pan at Walmart and it has been incredible in the already one month I've had it.
    The pan is super non-stick and mega easy to clean. I just hope that it'll be durable. My pancakes, scrambled/fried eggs come out amazing on it.
    I'd love to see what you'd recommend for a good durable pilón (mortar and pestle in English), cooking utensils, and oil cruet bottles.
    I really like your cooking videos. Would love to see you do some baking too, perhaps a Jiffy cornbread with a Zee twist?

I have a few pots and pans that I use mostly everyday, some I love but some that really hate. Most of my stuff is from Cuisinart. I would like to buy new cookware but I don't think I could afford some you recommend. I'm not that great of a cook and I would love to learn more. My family of 4 appreciates what you are doing on your channel. I already make something with your help. I just know if I had better cookware that I can do better for my family. Thanks for reading.

    Space is premium in an apartment so I can't buy huge calderos but I need at least one I can stuck somewhere. After I moved out if there's one thing I miss is the concón. I'm buying a caldero to make white rice _for_ the concón lmao. What do you think of making rice and concon in a cast iron enameled dutch oven? Will getting the concon out be too harsh on the enamel? What about ceramic dutch ovens?
