NEW KITCHENAID® GOURMET COOKWARE IN THREE COLLECTIONS KitchenAid® Gourmet Porcelain, Stainless Steel and Hard Anodized Cookware

Meyer Corporation, U.S. unveils KitchenAid^® Gourmet, a new line of high quality cookware designed with elegant, pro-style Windsor-shaped bodies. The three cookware collections include KitchenAid^® Gourmet Porcelain, KitchenAid^® Gourmet Stainless Steel, and KitchenAid^® Gourmet Hard Anodized. We are absolute enthusiasts of this high quality cookware, and Peachy Deegan must say her omelettes are cooking so well and evenly now that she is far less impressed with the culinary achievements of others, now that she sees how easily it can be done with the proper cookware!

“Our new revitalized and refreshed KitchenAid^® Gourmet line offers home cooks the opportunity to own and enjoy high quality cookware at varying prices from one of the industry’s most respected and well-recognized brands,” says Suzanne Murphy, Vice President of Marketing at Meyer Corporation.

Each piece of cookware in the three KitchenAid^® Gourmet Cookware collections is designed with a professional-style Windsor shape, which is slightly narrower at the base of the pan to concentrate heat during cooking and wider at the top to speed evaporation of liquids for more flavorful sauces, stews, braises and other dishes.

Available now at retail nationwide, new KitchenAid^® Gourmet cookware includes the following distinctive collections in both set and open stock options.

KitchenAid^® Gourmet Porcelain Cookware

Perfect for cooks who enjoy a dash of color in the kitchen, KitchenAid^® Gourmet Porcelain Cookware features two stylish exterior finishes, brilliant Red and classic Black. The durable, easy to clean KitchenAid^® Gourmet Porcelain Cookware is crafted from fast and even-heating aluminum layered with a stain-resistant, gleaming porcelain enamel exterior. The high quality nonstick cooking surface releases all foods easily – even sticky foods like eggs and pancakes – and tempered glass lids allow for monitoring the cooking process without lifting the lid and losing moisture. Comfortable handles made of durable stainless steel and silicone provide a secure grip. New KitchenAid^® Gourmet Porcelain Cookware is oven-safe to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. The collection includes:

The high-performance, dishwasher-safe and induction compatible cookware is crafted with an extra-thick, fully encapsulated base of fast and even-heating aluminum for excellent heat distribution without hot spots. The comfortable handle combines durable, stay-cool stainless steel

with silicone for a safe and secure grip. The clear tempered glass lids, which allow monitoring of the cooking process without lifting the lid, include a rim of black silicone to

create a tight seal and lock in flavor and nutrients. KitchenAid^® Gourmet Stainless Steel cookware is oven-safe to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. The new collection includes:

KitchenAid^® Gourmet Hard Anodized Cookware

Crafted from heavy-gauge, even-heating hard anodized aluminum, a material that is twice as strong as stainless steel, new KitchenAid^® Gourmet Hard Anodized Cookware offers rigorously designed cookware for years of everyday cooking. The cookware’s superior heat conductivity, which prevents hot spots during stovetop cooking, is matched by the convenience of a high quality nonstick cooking surface to release foods easily and make clean up effortless. The stay-cool, comfortable handles combine durable stainless steel with black silicone for a safe and secure grip. Clear tempered glass lids reinforced with wide stainless steel rims allow food monitoring during the cooking process without lifting the lid and losing moisture.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
