Circulon: Circles for Love. Circles for Life. #CirclesForLove #ad

Sponsored by Circulon®

I am very picky when it comes to my cooking pans. Ever since college, when I purchased my first “starter” set of pans, I’ve been learning what works and what doesn’t for my personal cooking needs. At each major milestone in my life– my first apartment, starting my blog, getting married and cooking for our family– I’ve added to and expanded my cooking “toolbox.” Making the transition from single gal with a hotplate to stocking a big, family-style kitchen was quite a shift, to say the least! With wedding season up on us, I’m sure many newlyweds are facing the same challenge as they register for gifts that will be an important part of their new lives together, hoping to find quality items that will last a lifetime.

I was recently introduced to Circulon® cookware and their iconic circle cooking surface, which combines three layers of premium nonstick with a unique high-low circle pattern that protects against abrasion for superior food release performance that lasts. One of the most impressive things about this Circulon Symmetry Chocolate Cookware is that it is metal utensil safe, so you don’t need to worry about damaging the nonstick surface and can relax knowing that these pans will carry you well into your cooking future. They are also dishwasher safe, induction suitable and oven safe up to 400 degrees F. Circulon Symmetry Chocolate Bakeware is equipped with Circulon’s famous high/low circle pattern, which helps promote airflow and even baking, as well as a PFOA-free nonstick surface and durable steel construction. And check out that warm, luscious chocolate color. Fancy shmancy!

For over thirty years, Circulon has focused on creating solutions that will help make cooking more efficient, convenient and enjoyable. They understand that you have a busy schedule and strive to help you stay one step ahead. Newlyweds can count on the Circulon circles and innovative engineering to help get their kitchens in order and carry them into the next phase of their life, and beyond! Forever is a long time, and Circulon is engineered to keep up.

It’s so great being able to use my metal cooking utensils without worrying about scratching up the pans. Also, I’ve gotta say, the PFOA-free nonstick surface and those Circulon high-low circles really do make a difference. Frying up these little quinoa patties, I was impressed that I was able to use half the oil I normally do and still get a crisp, evenly cooked, golden result!
