Since you have chowder on your mind, you need to make sure you have the essentials to make this creamy soup. Two of our favorite cookware options are made by our friends at Amercook.
Since these are often milk-based soups, freezing extra is not an option. So instead of using a large stockpot, we like to make smaller batches using saucepans and casserole pots.
Have a bigger family? This shallow pot would suit you well! It features everything mentioned above but can hold just a bit more of your yummy goodness.
Both of these Amercook cookware pots are also dishwasher safe, but I prefer to wash them by hand. Honestly, these are now the nicest pots we own. They both came with two oven mitts and were packaged very nicely.
You can tell just by looking at them that they are high-quality pieces and work even better.
If you are in the market for new cookware, you can't go wrong with Amercook. Nice price too!
