My introduction to 360 Cookware was on my very first date with my husband, Bryan. He handed me a 1 Quart Saucepan with excitement, as it was one of the very first pieces he made at his cookware factory — Americraft, in West Bend, WI.  He declared it, “the best stainless steel cookware you will ever own!” I was skeptical since he felt the need to give me instructions on how to cook. Telling me it was high-performance cookware and I only needed to cook on medium to low heat … I mean, I’d been cooking for most of my life! I was certainly eager to try it since, according to Bryan, it was ..read more

Look for IQF vegetables or individually quick-frozen vegetables as their quality and condition is far superior to those frozen solid in blocks. These vegetables (and fruits) usually come frozen in bags, and sometimes boxes, and should feel loose in the package. Frozen vegetables may throw off more water than fresh and therefore require straining.  Place the vegetables, un-defrosted, in your 360 Cookware pan. Cover with cold water and drain the water out of the pan. Cover your stainless steel pan and cook over medium heat until steam just begins to escape from under the lid. Spin the lid t ..read more

The Issue:  The lid is stuck and won't come off the pot; got stuck on the countertop; lid stuck on pot or pan. The Reason:  As the pans and lids cool, a vacuum will form rendering the lid unable to be removed. The Fix: Simply place the pan over medium heat for a few minutes. The stuck lid will lift off once the metals have warmed. Should your lid get stuck on your countertop or other surface, soak a dish towel in hot water, wring out excess water and place the dish towel over the lid. The heat from the damp towel should be sufficient to remove the lid from any flat surface. Note: Nev ..read more
