Cast Iron Pots
The perfect partner when it comes to braised dishes: pots and roasters made of cast iron. But this material can do so much more! Cookware made of cast iron boasts numerous excellent advantages, such as: Cast iron has very good heat conduction. When cooking, the heat is evenly distributed and also transferred to the food being cooked. This allows for slow, gentle preparation, preserving the nutrients in the food as much as possible. Additionally, dishes can be braised for a long time in lidded pots, keeping ingredients like meat juicy. If meat needs to be seared before braising, as with goulash, this is also possible in a cast iron pot. The heat retention of cast iron pots is also excellent and a real advantage, especially when the dish is served directly in the cocotte.
The possible uses for these heavyweights among cooking pots are diverse: They are suitable for searing, roasting, steaming, and braising, and can also be used for emulsifying, candying, and caramelizing. They can be used on all types of stoves, including gas, electric, induction, glass-ceramic cooktops, and—depending on the item—sometimes even in the oven. High-quality cookware made of cast iron, like that from our brands Invicta and Skeppshult, is easy to clean, extremely robust, and durable—provided it is properly cared for.
