Easy cooking with Mario Batali
by Sharline Bareng, Staff Writer
Do you love to cook? Or are you the type who would love to cook but are just too lazy to try?
If you identify with either of the statements above, we’re sure nothing could excite you or inspire you to finally don that apron more than lovely, good quality kitchenware that would make your culinary life easier and more fab.
You might want to look at celebrity chef Mario Batali’s Italian Kitchen Collection, now available in all Gourdo’s stores. Mario’s new line includes a selection of sauce pans, pots, pizza pans, and essential tools that all reflect the chef’s motto of leaving food in its simple beauty.
Made of heavy enameled cast iron that Mario is known to be fond of, the collection’s hefty pots are durable enough to be passed from generation to generation. The pots’ durable porcelain enamel finish inside is easy to clean and safe to use on gas and electric ranges and in an oven. The iron cast body evenly distributes heat and keeps food hot when served directly on the table.

If you often end up cooking for family and friends, you’d appreciate the 7.5 Quart Cioppino and Stew Pot (P6,775), which has a low, wide body that provides more surface area for heating soups and stews.
Tired of resorting to sandwiches when you need a quick fix? Upgrade your cold ‘wich to a piping hot one pressed with the 11†x 11†Mario Batali Panini Grill (P4,200). You can even cook steaks on this nifty grill!

Single girls can opt for 2 Cup Italian Essentials Pot (P1,540), which may seem too small but is actually the right size for a solo dish. It’s also perfect for making soufflés and side dishes.
