There are lots of ways to spend lots of money on kitchen tools, but pots and pans are the best place to splurge. jbarro writes

Photo: Boris Roessler/Picture Alliance via Getty Image Amanda Mull writes for The Atlantic about Le Creuset Dutch ovens as iconic millennial totems of adulthood. They are affordable luxuries, seemingly built for Instagram, that demonstrate a mature and wholesome interest in cooking and entertaining. If you can’t afford to buy a home, you may still be able to afford these tools that make your rental home feel homier.
I soon discovered my fancy new pot was slightly too small to comfortably make a braise for an eight-person dinner party, like I wanted. But the size issue aside, as Mull notes, Le Creuset’s pots really are great tools for cooking: They’re heavy, which means they heat evenly and retain heat well, leading to excellent browning without scorching and consistent outcomes. And the enamel covering makes them much less fussy to maintain than regular cast iron pots and pans.
You don’t need fancy knives; you will cook just as well with mid-price knives that you keep sharp with an inexpensive, manual knife sharpener. You also don’t need a lot of knives; you need one quality chef’s knife, which you can get for under $40, and you may also want a flexible boning knife and a paring knife, depending on how you cook. And you need a bread knife, but notice that I called it a bread knife: serrated knives are only for bread and artichokes.
