COOKING NOTES
Spreads heat quickly and evenly. Best for frying, braising and pot roasts.
Slow to change temperature and holds heat. Good for browning, frying and stewing.
Quick to change temperature. Great for gourmet cooking, wine sauces and egg
cookery. Tin-lining will wear thin with use and must be retinned to avoid a poisonous
reaction between the copper, the heat and the food.
Slow to change temperature. Best for long, low heat cooking with a liquid.
Porcelain enamel over steel is long lasting, stain and scratch resistant. How well it
heats depends upon the type of steel used. Best for cooking soups and other liquids.
Usually combined with other metals such as aluminum, copper or carbon steel. These
other metals make the cookware heat more quickly while the stainless steel makes it
strong and long lasting. Best for frying, sauces, soups, vegetables and egg cooking.
