What kind of utensil will be good for this cookware set?

Silicone only, plastic scratches. Mine are still like new due to medium heat only and I never let anything burn.

I bought a 17 piece plastic utensil set thru Amazon which works perfectly. Wood probably would work also.

I purchased the Melissa & Doug red wooden pan set. Sorry, I don't know which metal set is best.

Sorry, I bought the set as a gift for my son, I am not sure. It is very high quality cookware.

I use various utensils, depending on what I'm making. Bamboo, mostly, but also stainless (carefully), Kitchen Aid Standard plastic- the very sturdy plastic type. I'm very happy with this cookware!

This is a good basic set but, if you're looking to carve spoons or bowls, FROM WHAT I'VE READ AND SEEN, you'll need a hook knife as well. Something like this... Morakniv Wood Carving 163 Hook Knife with Carbon Steel Blade

Well, of course you can use whatever you would like, but if you want the non-stick coating to last I would recommend using anything other than metal. Metal cooking utensils tend to scratch and scrape the non-stick surface. Plastic, wood, or other non-metal utensils are recommended.

Any kind of pan will work. The lighter and darker the pan the better. You do need to cover everything you cook because of condensation.

Yes, stainless is the healthiest choice for cookware. Aluminum cookware can leach aluminum into your food and teflon non-stick can flake off into your food if you scratch it or it gets old and flakes off. Stainless does none of these. Sticking can be avoided by using a little oil. Just a thin coat, 1-2 teaspoons, is usually enough. And don't have the heat up screaming high. If you cook on medium to medium-high, it will stick less.

Hi! That was one of the reasons I wanted new cookware as well! This is not heavy which makes cooking so much easier! This is the best set of cookware I have ever owned!

You can use metal utensils. I still have so many plastic, and you can still use those. Just don't leave them near the heat or touching surfaces very long.

According to the care and use instructions that came with my Simply Calphalon Stainless Steel sauce pan: "Utensils: Cooking with stainless steel interiors is safe for use with all utensils. Cookware with nonstick interiors is safe for use with nylon, silicone, coated or wooden utensils. Do not use appliances or sharp instruments to cut, chop, mix or release foods in a stainless steel or nonstick pan. Such use can damage the nonstick finish and void the warranty."

Metal will scratch the non stick coating so be very careful! If you decide to invest in this set it would be best to also grab a set of wood, rubber, or other alternate utensils.

I am not sure...I don't use metal utensils with mine. You could try calling the company for advice. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

It is recommended to use the same care as with non-stick pans. I use melamine utensils as rubber or plastic utensils always tend to melt.

I would not recommend using metal utensils. The teflon lining is delicate and metal will wear it down causing the loss of the coating. Wooden and plastic is your best bet.

Any silverware would look good. The shape and depth of plates and bowls are quite modern to me, and the sheen of the plates is very nice, almost mother of pearl sheen. Very nice and would blend well with any kind of placemat and accents on your table. Hope this helps.
