Product Description
Amazon.com Review
This copper pot is more than just an ideal vessel for stirring stovetop risotto to a creamy consistency. After cooking, hook up the removable half-loop, cast-iron handle (it'll stay cool), and ceremoniously carry the pot to your table, where it doubles as a gorgeous serving piece. What makes the pot ideal is its copper exterior and thick, hand-fired, traditional tin lining. Copper conducts heat faster than any other cookware material (think copper electricity wires), so heat spreads evenly across the pot's bottom and up its sides, cooking the risotto evenly. Copper is also extremely responsive to heat changes, permitting quick, subtle adjustments while cooking, so the rice isn't boiled. The tin lining conducts heat nearly as well as copper.
At 10-1/4 inches in diameter and 2-7/8 inches high, the pot holds 3 quarts, enough for large gatherings. A 13-inch, unfinished wooden spoon--perfectly shaped to reach every grain of rice and holed in the center to ease stirring--accompanies the pot. You can also use this pot to cook casseroles on the stovetop or in the oven and to prepare rice dishes other than risotto. Though the copper comes highly polished, maintaining that gleam is not essential; cooks traditionally enjoy the patina age brings to copper as a sign that copperware is practical, not pretentious. --Fred Brack

A Great Too For Any Italian Cook,
This review is from: Copper Risotto Pan with Spoon
If you are interested in making a traditional Italian risotto, than I highly recommend this Italian risotto pan. It's perfectly shaped to cook risotto with it's large, heavy bottom. I found it was much easier to clean up afterwards than my usual pot I had been making risotto in also. As the Italian Food Host at BellaOnline, I am always on the lookout for handy tools to make cooking easier, and this product definitely fits the bill.
