Cast Iron Sauce Pot & Basting Brush

Perfect for basting and glazing, this heavy duty little pot will last a lifetime and enhance almost every cook that you do. The nifty silicone brush sits neatly in the handle for ease and convenience.

The ideal sidekick for enriching roasts and slow cooks with glossy glazes, sauces and marinades.

Bonus points: the brush is dishwasher safe and stows neatly in the handle.

Care

All of your iron products – including the rEGGulator from time to time – require a light brushing of oil. After use, clean your pan with hot water and a soft sponge. Avoid detergents or scrubbers, as these are likely to take off the seasoning you’ve built up; the same seasoning that helps prevent food from sticking and gives your cooks amazing flavour.

Instead, brush down after use with a non-abrasive cloth, and then season with sunflower or rapeseed oil, which have a high burning temperature and won’t leave a bitter taste.

Seasoning

Seasoning is the process of coating cookware with layers of fat to create a natural non-stick surface. Cast iron and wrought iron have an amazing ability to retain seasoning, becoming more and more non-stick with every use. What’s more, your food will begin to taste better as it takes on the flavours of the cooks that came before it.

You’ll have to re-season your iron cookware with a high burning-temperature oil (such as rapeseed oil) from time to time.
