Enameled cookware is made from metal and coated with a glass-like substance (vitreous enamel or porcelain enamel) through a high-temperature firing process.
Key Features of Enameled Cookware
Food Safety: The enamel surface has a smooth, glass-like texture, resists acidic or alkaline foods, and does not absorb odors, ensuring the flavor of the food remains intact. It is also free from metal contaminants.
High Heat Resistance: It can withstand high temperatures very well and is suitable for use on all types of stovetops, including gas, electric, induction, charcoal, and ovens (not suitable for microwaves due to the metal core).
Heat Distribution: Enameled cast iron cookware distributes heat evenly and retains heat for a long time, making it ideal for braising or baking.
Easy to Clean: The smooth, non-stick surface makes it easy to clean.
