Classical Range 28cm Solid Copper Jam Pot with Cast Iron Loop Handles

Our 28cm copper jam pot is crafted in traditional fashion built to endure.  During the jam-making process, as with confectionery procedures, the components of sugar as it breaks down, block reactive copper ions. That's why pure, unlined copper is safe to use when making jams, curds, preserves, conserves and confections. Copper regulates temperature more efficiently than any other material used in the cooking industry, giving you greater control over results. The durable, cast iron handle finishes our jam pot with the same rustic beauty that confectioners have enjoyed for centuries.

Use tips

• Suitable for both electric and gas hobs.
• Oven safe to 280°C/535°F/Gas Mark 8.
• Because of its superior conductivity, copper (and copper core) cookware rarely requires full heat on a hob, typically no more than 50-75% of full power.  Use a lower flame when cooking with gas.
• We recommend seasoning pan interiors with a vegetable oil occasionally prior to frying and sautéing, and always use a small amount of oil when pre-heating.
• Avoid pre-heating an empty saucepan and never allow this to boil dry.
• When seasoning your food remember to heat the water to boiling point first, especially before adding salt.  This disperses the salt quickly and prevents pitting of the stainless steel lining.

Care tips

• Always allow pots and pans to cool before cleaning.
• Do not put Falk cookware in a mechanical dishwasher.
• We do not recommend the use of products containing bleach for cleaning copper cookware.
• Hand washing in warm soapy water is normally all that is required.  Always dry immediately after washing with a soft cloth.
• Copper will develop a rich patina over time.  This will not affect cooking performance.
• To keep copper pans looking like new, use a suitable polish for copper and a fine abrasive pad.
• Apply a light coat of vegetable oil to cast iron handles from time to time to prevent rusting.
