What are the most indispensable pots and pans in your home kitchen?
Thank you!

I like a kitchen cluttered with equipment--so I can stir all kinds of stuff. But I could cook out of a few pots, and those are:

-A tall pot to cook pasta, soup or stock
-A rondo, sort of braising pot to cook braised meats or sauce
-Saute' pan to make quick saute's and frittatas
-Cast iron skillet
-Heavy bottom pot to cook risotto or polenta
