Sure you can. The real question is why?

Because Visions is arguably the worst commercially produced cookware
ever, that's why. The double boiler is fine and the pans are okay
in the microwave if you like cooking in the nuke. But on the range
the low heat conductivity combined with medium heat retention
ensures terrible sticking problems.

Cast iron gets over the sticking problem caused by low conductivity
with the nearly stick-free carbon coating of seasoning, but Visions
glas-like-stuff has even lower heat conductivity than cast iron and
does not season.

I bought a set of Visions long ago and regretted it. Eventually I
tossed the pieces that had not broken and I replaced them with
other materials. Visions is no longer sold.

which is why ive picked up a couple pieces at garage sales a few years back
for virtually nothing. ive got a nice set of rena cookware for normal use.
but ive got a really small vision frying pan that i use once in a while for
certain special things. i know they suck for general use, but for some
things its just what you need. until i find a nice stainless tiny frying
pan at a garage sale..

besides the small frying pan and a couple bowls i use in the microwave, i
use the 5 quart dutch oven quite a bit for baking, but it never touches the
stove.

thx
