Why do professional chefs use copper pans?
First things first, have you ever wondered why professional chefs swear by copper pots and copper cookware?
Copper's advantage as a cookware lies in its superior heat conducting, which results in even heat distribution. When it comes to searing steak, frying or sautéing seafood, this makes copper pans and copper pots a high performance cookware. This is because when heat is distributed evenly on copper pans, food is less likely to become burnt or stick to the pan.
On top of that, copper pans heat up quickly, which is something that professional chefs appreciate. Besides, in most fine-dining restaurants, these professional chefs are expected to dish up delicate dishes that include delicate protein and sauces prone to breaking.
Even serious home cooks and gourmet cuisine enthusiasts praise copper cookware for its ability to make savory sauces and sweet sauces such as caramel better than other material. In fact, our Copper Saucepans and Copper Jam Pans are highly recommended by our customers for this reason!

What are the 4 benefits of cooking in copper pots at home?
Cooking in copper pots yields benefits beyond good tasting food. Here are 4 surprising benefits of cooking in copper pots at home you don't know about:
1. Natural and non-stick traditional tin lining in our copper pots make them healthier for long-term use
Did you know that copper pots with traditional tin lining are a healthy choice for your kitchen? Unlike non-stick cookware with toxic non-stick coating, our hand hammered copper pots and pans are lined with tin.
Tin is the original non stick cooking surface that is safe for the environment and for our bodies. The processes used to make non-stick cookware today involve some very harmful chemical components, PFOAs (Perfluorooctanoic acids), also known as the Forever Chemicals. These chemicals found on the non-stick coating of non-stick cookware do not break down and accumulate in our environment, water and bodies.
Numerous studies have found that high exposure to PFOAs are linked to thyroid disease, diagnosed high cholesterol, kidney cancer, testicular cancer and pregnancy-indused hypertension. On top of that, it has also been found that PFOAs are bioaccumulative and found in the blood of more than 98% of Americans!
