In every traditional kitchen, it brings back a moment of long ago to see a range of ladles hanging, mortar and pestles stacked in one side, and clay pots in use. Large round metal pots used for cooking stews are also seen. If you have the heart of the old-fashioned, you will cherish everything in an olden kitchen.
Among this kitchenware, a clay pot is the highly functional. It has a multitude of uses and can cook a wide range of dishes. This old-fashioned cooking not only saves nutrients, but also saves time. Modern clay pots today known as clay bakers require soaking the pots in water for 5-10 minutes before placing the ingredients into the pot and before placing the entire clay pot in a cold oven. The slow but sure heating of the pot allows you to leave your food even for hours without the fear of burning.
Terracotta cookware is made from natural clay which never gets hot in any one spot. Whether you're boiling, stewing or simmering, terracotta heats quickly over low-heat and retain heat for perfect stocks, soups and stews. This makes our dishes served on a terracotta dish still warm even after dinner. If the food stays covered, the more it remains hot for a longer time; and even when the lid is set aside, our meals retain their heat and moisture without to food becoming soggy.
By using clay pots, all of the ingredients can simmer together and infuse each other with their flavors. Meats become perfectly tenderized, vegetables come alive and their juices combine to create a rich sauce. There are also pots known as terracotta with glazed bottom or underside so food particles, flavors and odors will not leak into the pot. Most clay pots today are too small if you are fond of roasting. Make your own search from any clay pot that's normally used for roasting fish, meat or poultry. You can find a wide range of genuine clay cooking pots in specialty shop both locally and online.
This revolution creates a proven legacy that clay cooking pot is the ancient cookware accurate for today's modern kitchen. The fact that it is considered the "green cookware" brings both the good advantage of a material that's made of natural earth, and its requirement for lesser heat energy used due to the high heat conductivity of terracotta.
Cooking in clay pots has been traced back hundreds and hundreds of years to the Romans and earlier, when food was cooked in stoneware positioned in the glowing ashes of an open fire. With today's busy schedules, I think bringing back this olden method is the only way to get the food's natural juices from the closed cooking style.
