Caldero
The famous Caldero! Every Latin home has a Caldero in the house. All different sizes! This is not just ANY pot. This Coldero simultaneously makes the best layer of "con con" (crunchy rice) and the fluffiest rice within that layer your mouth could ever imagine. There's also something about the way soup cooks in this pot... It gives me that warm feeling of grandma in the kitchen.
Pilon
The Pilon is used for a a variety of things. My favorite use is to make Mofongo which we will definitely get into! But it's mainly used to smash whole spices.
There are two basic kinds of Tostoneras. One is to make make regular tostones and the other is to make tostones rellenos (stuffed). Tostones are made from green refried plantains.
