The Hero Pan is the Swiss Army knife of cookware — it can boil, strain, sauté, simmer, pan-fry, sear, braise, steam, stir-fry and even serve. Lightweight with easy-pour spouts on both sides (a win for righties and lefties), it also comes with a steamer basket for extra versatility. Perfect for one-pan meals, it’s got a non-toxic, nonstick interior that makes cleanup a breeze. Oh, and at just $40, it’s a total steal — similar “hero” pans from other brands can run you hundreds.
