What is cast iron cookware?

Cast iron cookware has a long history of being smelted from iron ore with a carbon content of at least 2-4%. The molten cast iron is poured into a mold where it cools and hardens into the desired tile pot shape. Once extracted, the cast iron is sandblasted, polished, rinsed, and often seasoned or enameled. Cast iron is hard, does not deteriorate easily, and has traces of carbon, manganese, silicon, sulfur, and phosphorus.

Why choose cast iron cookware over others?

Cooking with stainless steel is a relatively easy task. Stainless steel pans heat up quickly, distribute heat evenly, and can be used to cook any ingredient in your pantry. However, it is extremely poorly insulated, and its rapid heating and cooling characteristics cause stainless steel pans to consume more energy and can stick to the pan, making cleanup annoying.

At a low price, a good cast iron dutch oven can last you decades with proper maintenance. Regarding stainless steel pots and pans, while it is also more durable, it is much more expensive.

It is worth mentioning that we also sell a two-in-one pot, in which the fry pan + casserole form a set.

Do you know how we make enamel pots?

First, apply a primer to the cast iron pot body. After firing and cooling, a cover layer (one or more times) is applied. The base coat is the transition layer that bonds with the cast iron pot body. It requires very strong adhesion. The top coat is applied over the base glaze, covering the base glaze, and making the cast iron pot surface smooth and beautiful while avoiding rust. Our enamel coatings are available in a variety of colors and can be customized.

This process needs to be maintained for about five minutes. When the pancake turns black and charred, just It's time to stop.
