High-quality and trendy: copper cookware
19.1.2018
Translation: Eva Francis
They’re trendy quality products: pots and pans made of copper. Copper’s unsurpassed ability to transfer and distribute heat quickly and evenly is why professional chefs often use copper cookware. Yet, it’s worth investing in copper cookware for anyone, as these pots and pans last forever.
Copperware is the Rolls Royce of cooking. Copper instantly transfers temperature changes to the food, making it ideal to prepare anything that needs to be cooked to perfection.
Do you own copper pots and pans? Lucky you! You don’t only have premium cookware, but also stylish kitchen accessories that make every dish look appetising.
What’s so special about copper cookware?
Copper’s thermal conductivity is nine times higher than aluminium and 25 times higher than steel. This is why copper pans don’t only transfer heat along the base as other pans do. On top of that, with up to 400° C, there’s almost no material that’s as heat resistant as copper. Some manufacturers even produce pots and pans for induction stoves.
Is copper dangerous?
Copper poisoning exists, but you don’t need to worry when you buy copper cookware, as it’s coated with tin or stainless steel. The human body contains copper, so it’s not toxic. Our body even needs copper ions and is able to excrete some excess copper. However, don’t cook acidic fruits or other foods containing acid in your copper cookware, as it will damage the material.
How to care for copper pots and pans?
Always clean your copper cookware by hand, never in the dishwasher. Also, don’t use a steel wool pad or sponge and buy a special copper cleaner. If you follow this advice, your copper cookware will remain as good as new.
