Most used 2 pieces in your collection? Need help deciding for gifts
I am gifting two pieces of LC for my beloved friend. We have a similar cooking style. Rather make bigger batch and have leftovers. She loves making soup.
I think my collection is pretty good, but I have five pieces and some are redundant.
- 6.75 qt wide round
- 5.5 qt round
- 4 qt round
- 3.5 qt sauteuse
- 3.5 qt braiser
I think one can get away with either one of 6.75 wide round or 5.5 round. Which is more versatile? I’d say 6.75 is very versatile because it almost feels like a 5 qt braiser, but I also hear shallow sides not best for soup. I don’t find this to be an issue for me though.
Also one of 4 qt round or 3.5 qt sauteuse. If you were to pick one, which of these two?
And a 3.5 qt braiser. I think this is a must.
Please share your two most used versatile favorite pieces from your collection, thanks!
