Using Your Flameware

    • Casseroles: soups, stews, steamed vegetables…

    • Fry Pans: omelets, burgers, stir fry…

    • Sauce Warmers: melting butter, heating water, making tea/coffee…

    • Have a small amount of liquid —water or oil— covering the whole bottom of your pot before you add your food and heat

    • The clay keeps cooking for a while after you turn off the heat, so turn off the heat just before your dish is complete

    • If you burn food onto the bottom of your Flameware add water to the pot while it’s still hot and let it sit for an hour or so.

    • If the food is just stuck it’ll usually just lift off the pot.

    • If the food is highly carbonized it’ll take some scrubbing. I usually start with a fork to scrape the bulk of the carbon off the pot and then finish with a scrubby or the back of a sponge.
