ceramic cookware

I love to cook, and I love fancy kitchen stuff, but good cookware is expensive. Naturally, everything I can't afford to buy immediately is going straight to my Wish List.

The newest wish item is this amazing flame-top ceramic cookware, just introduced by Emile Henry. It's ceramic, but CAN handle a direct flame! It can be used directly on the stove, in the oven or in the freezer without fear of cracking or breaking.

Ceramic is a natural material made from clay. Cooking in ceramic remains the best way to preserve the flavors and nutritional qualities in the food, and to develop the aromas. What's more, the small bumps on the underside of the lid flavor the condensation process : the vapor falls back onto the food, which remains full of flavor.

The ceramic stewpot is 30% lighter than cast iron. It is designed for everyday use : you can serve directly at the table and cut inside thanks to its extremely resistant glaze. It can also be taken from the freezer and put directly on the gas or in the oven. It also slips easily into the dishwasher.

It comes in a few sizes and in either black or red (personally, I prefer the red). Modern technology is amazing!
