I test cookware for a living, and over the past year, my kitchen cupboards quietly filled with around 30 pans. Moving into a tiny new city kitchen forced me to rethink. I needed to cut down, keeping only the most versatile high-performers for an effective clutter-free space.
So when a stackable set from Staub arrived for testing, just before my move, I was thrilled. If you are wondering how to choose the best cookware for a small space, this clever design is a big win. It combines low-stick, cast-iron, non-toxic cookware (I chose the fry pan, braiser, and cocotte) with a nesting design that saves cupboard space without compromising performance.
