Natural Clay Baker

Cooking with clay is a clever, all-natural way to make healthy, nutritious meals packed full of the food’s natural flavours. From moist meat dishes, soups and stews to succulent roast chicken, hearty casseroles and even desserts, these clay pots simmer, steam and braise dishes in their own juices, with deliciously tender and tasty results. This centuries old cooking method dates back to ancient times, with the ancient Romans producing enormous quantities of clay cooking pots. The Romertopf lid remains unglazed and requires about 15 minutes of soaking in tap water before each use. The water that is absorbed by the unglazed clay lid is slowly released during the cooking process. These tiny water particles penetrate the food, blending with the natural food juices and enhancing tenderness, flavour and aroma. @ R350 Oval lidded clay roaster perfect for slow cooking Can be used in the oven or the microwave for quick cooking Cooks food in its own juices so no additional fat is necessary Simply soak the lid in water for 15 minutes before use for perfect steam cooking Clay is porous so absorbs, stores, and when the heat intensifies, gives off water Ensures moist and tender meals full of natural flavour Maintains vitamins, minerals and aromas of the ingredients As there is always moisture available, your meal can bake up to 25 minutes beyond the given cooking time without burning Perfect for oven to table use as it retains heat to keep dishes warm while serving Made from natural #clay sourced in #Germany #römertopf Easy to handle and dishwasher safe. #preloved #iHelpCPT
