Vermicular Oven Pot - 22cm

$320.00

Weighing in at 9.3 pounds, the Vermicular Oven Pot is one of the lightest Dutch ovens we’ve tried—but it’s still incredibly durable. It features three layers of heat-resistant enameled coating made from a proprietary glass composition that distribute heat evenly. Plus, a precision seal between the lid and rim helps to lock in moisture and flavor. Its design promotes excellent heat conduction, radiant heat and steam convection to cook food gently and evenly. Both the lid and pot are equipped with ergonomic handles for a secure, comfortable grip when transferring the pot from stove to oven or from kitchen to table. Use to steam-roast vegetables, cook rice, soups, stews, braises and more. Available in natural beige or matte black.

How to use

Hotter and faster, that’s the trick.

The thin, lightweight design of the Vermicular Oven Pot starts with a proprietary alloy of graphite iron and other metals heated to 2700℉—hotter than most brands—and then poured into sand molds in a few seconds—a fraction of the time of other brands—to ensure durability for such an even product. Next, a tight-fitting seal between the pot and lid is created thanks to hand-machining the edges to less than 0.01 millimeter of variance. Finally, the enamel coating is added and each oven pot is baked at 1500℉, three times.
