In Italy, the mothers and grandmothers know that the only way to get the best flavors out of legumes, sauces and risottos is to use a clay pot over the flame. The clay imparts a flavor, and allows for the slow diffusion of heat that is best for foods like meats and legumes. Vulcania, a highly reputable clay pot company, makes the contemporary version of this ancient pot in brilliant red or the traditional rich brown.

Comes with Italian metal mesh flame diffuser for longer life when placing over a flame or electric stove top.

Suggested use:
Use with meat and vegetable stews, risottos, sauces, and all slow cooking applications.
