Emile Henry | Bread / Potato Pot

Details:

Emile Henry's Bread & Potato Pot allows you to cook all kinds of vegetables at a low temperature (potatoes, chestnuts, etc.) bringing out their delicate flavors while keeping their natural characteristics. Made from their proprietary  Flame Ceramic*, it can be used on all types of cooking surfaces: gas, electric and halogen (with an induction disk for induction hobs) and in the oven. Its spherical shape is designed to diffuse the heat gently and evenly. When used on a cooking range, turn it over every 15 minutes: your vegetables will be tasty, and potatoes will be soft with a crispy skin. The rounded shape is also ideal for no-knead loaves and other breads. Unlike most pans, you can preheat it empty in the oven! Spherical shape is designed to heat evenly on all sides. Excellent for cooking vegetables and bread! All Emile Henry products are made in France and offer a 10 year guarantee.

Additional Info:

*Natural Products: Emile Henry attaches great importance to the fact that their stewpots, tagines and other cooking utensils are produced using raw materials taken directly from the surrounding countryside: non-treated clay, sand, filtered water and mineral oxides for the colorful glazes. This allows you to cook in total safety. There is no lead, cadmium or nickel in our products, which means that there is no risk of contamination while cooking. Emile Henry's Flame® cookware is made in Marcigny France from high fired Burgundy clay.

Delicate Cooking: Contrary to metallic cooking utensils, our Flame® ceramic is an excellent heat diffuser (not conductor). Cooking is therefore gentle: the food does not burn and all the flavors are kept in tact. Very high temperatures are therefore unnecessary and we advise you to always start on a low heat. This even heat distribution means that the ingredients do not burn during cooking and conserve all their vitamins.

Healthy Cooking: The absence of metal in our products allows you to cook without oxidizing the food, thus retaining all the vitamins and nutritive qualities present in the ingredients. What's more, our highly resistant glazes allow cooking with a minimal amount of fat. Finally, our non-porous ceramic avoids the absorption of smells or water and makes it easy to clean. 

Resistance Against Mechanical Shocks: During everyday use, there are many opportunities to bang a dish or a set of plates. Particularly resistant to shocks, our ceramic is even used in restaurants!

Resistance Against Temperature Changes: A dish or stewpot should be able to withstand wide variations in temperature. Our ceramics allow our products to be taken directly from the freezer to the hot oven (+500°C/930°F).

Resistance Against Fading Colors: Heat, the dishwasher or sharp instruments will all have an aging effect on a product. Our glazes are particularly resistant to the dishwasher and the most aggressive of detergents.
