Mexican Cookware - Equipment Used in Mexican Cooking

Mexican cooking at home doesn't have to an impossible task to accomplish. Try using the following kitchen equipment for the next in-home Mexican meal.

Comal: Basically, a comal is a cast iron griddle and is used without oil. It's flat with a handle and is used for making tortillas and roasting foods that require no oil. Mexican comals also can be made of clay.

Molcajete and Tejolote: Mortar and Pestle, these are used for crushing and grinding herbs, spices and seeds. The bowl and grinder are made from porous volcanic rock and are still used today. You can also make traditional Mexican salsa in the Molcajete and Tejolote.

Prensa (Tortilla Press): A tortilla press can be metal or wood, with two hinged plates and a handle. A tortilla press is used to flatten the dough for making tortillas.

Tamale Steamer: Tamale Steamers can be purchased at any Mexican cuisine store or market or you can make one yourself. Using a large enough stock pot to fit a metal colander lined with foil in the bottom, pour about an inch of water in the pot. The foil keeps the tamales from touching the water. Place the tamales in the colander and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Cover the pot tightly with a lid.

Cazuela: a clay pot or bowl still used in Mexico today for boiling corn, stews and beans. Though many Mexican households now use Olla Express (Pressure Cooker) to make beans, they still place the beans in a cazuela for the final few minutes of cooking to give beans that authentic Mexican flavor.

Metate y Mano (Hand Grinder): This tool looks like a short 3 legged table with a concave surface about the size of a platter. A large cylinder of stone is used for grinding spices, herbs and seeds. You can also find larger versions made for sitting at. Metate y Mano is made from stone or lava rock and is still used today in many Mexican households.

Molinillo (Wood Whisk or Stirrer): This ancient tool is used to create foam in hot chocolate. Place between your hands and rotate the whisk back and forth briskly. Molinillos can be plain or highly decorated.

Olla: A bean pot made of clay. Most Olla's are beautifully decorated and glazed. Cooking beans in an olla gives beans a far superior taste than cooking them in metal pans or even a slow cooker. Olla's look beautiful sitting on the counter when not in use and make a great gift. Fill the pot with bags of beans and seasoning and give to your friends or relatives who love authentic Mexican cooking.

Most of the cookware mentioned above can be purchased online, in a specialty Mexican market or store.

CIA Masters Collection 7-Ply Copper Clad Stainless Steel 12 Inch Saute Pan with Helper Handle Review



Like other reviews have pointed out, this is a large, heavy, solid pan.

That said, it's definitely worth it. It heats very evenly (make sure to pre-heat for a few minutes and use some real oil/butter, not the aerosol stuff), cleans up well (polish with Bon Ami if desired - never use steel wool) and feels like it's been forged of one continuous piece of metal (unlike other pans where cheap rivets make the handle attachment wobbly).

This has become my go-to pan for most stove-top tasks. Admittedly it's a tad big for some small jobs (a single fried egg looks comically tiny), but that's no reason not to buy.

This purchase has made me want to get more pieces from the CIA Masters Collection - I like the brand better than All-Clad for both performance and price. FYI, this also comes in a 10" version and both sizes are available with a nonstick coating.

Tip: If you want to move this pan one-handed when it's laden with food, you can grab close to where handle is attached and brace it against your forearm (the handle's curve and size makes it feel like it was designed for this). While not as easy as using both hands and the helper handle, it's a good way to muscle things about.



CIA Masters Collection 7-Ply Copper Clad Stainless Steel 12 Inch Saute Pan with Helper Handle Feature


  • 7-Ply Copper Core construction extends up full side of the pan for quick and even heat distribution
  • Induction Ready
  • Ranked 'Best Overall' by National cooking magazine in January 2008
  • Riveted ergonomically designed handle, and 'helper handle', are comfortable and add to ease of use
  • Lifetime Warranty



CIA Masters Collection 7-Ply Copper Clad Stainless Steel 12 Inch Saute Pan with Helper Handle Overview

The perfect amount of copper has been layered between layers of aluminum and stainless steel to offer an amazingly responsive and conductive piece of kitchen equipment. The detail to design and functionality are exceptional and will be a welcome addition to your kitchen.

Great pan but I can't lift it! - Amsterdame - Los Angeles, CA
This is one of those times I should have checked out the product in person prior to purchasing. It's a great saute pan, and cooks very evenly. However, it is so heavy it is difficult to lift, even with the "helper handle". Still love it though.



Great addition to my set - W. Weeks - NY, USA
I bought the seven piece set a few years ago and wanted a 12 inch saute pan. This actually was on my wish list for Christmas, and I got my wish. The pan is sturdy, like the rest of the collection, heats well and is easy to clean. I has been a great addition to my set. I also bought the 2 quart sauce pan, as it did not come with the set, I couldn't be happier overall with my choice. A definite up grade from my old Revere pans. Would recommend this brand to anyone who takes cooking seriously.






Panvalue - David L. Cardillo - TN US
Pan is heavy, and needs the auxiliary handle. It heats well and evenly on low heats. We bought this for specific use on a glass top range. I am not a large person, and found that I can pick up the skillet with my left hand, the trick being to use the heighth and length of the handle against my forearm for support. I can transport it to the table that way, serving with my free hand. I believe it was great value for the money.
