Yes they are everywhere. Being a chappie I guess kitchen pans are not as high on your list as other things. Some things are boys toys..
. some things are girls toys.
I am the ‘cook’ in our family, and son is also very interested.
I confess, I have not looked at replacing our pans, so do not know what is out there.
I use S/s mainly, have one large cast iron oval huge casserole, i do goose, ot two chicken/ duck in it. Made by Staub, so chraper than Creuset. Frying pans - three cast iron, one s/s Teflon, one Alu Teflon.
I really do not need any more here, but I think I will order a shallow pan and that copper fomed Tagine.
Do not make a misstake, I love guns, knives and cars too!
In both my parent’s families, the men cooked well. So it comes naturally.
Edit; Clay? Does the German clay pot qualify? Had one of those. Broke it.
Was it as fantastic as they say? No.
I love my Aluminium Trangia and Optimus outdoor pots. Light. Does not break.
