Oven to Table Cookware
Is there anything better than sitting at the dining table, enjoying food straight from the dish? Sizzling hot, there is something intimate and very enjoyable in sharing food with friends and family – more so when you see empty dishes, which means your guests have enjoyed the food you have prepared. Colour is important in setting a table and you want your ovenware to sit well alongside your plates and another crockery. In the Denby ceramic oven to tableware range, the colors are a delight from pastel colored ramekins to the deeper shades of blue and green that are on trend at the moment.
In recent years, interior designers have also been emphasizing quality over quantity and how investing in quality pieces with a neutral aspect can carry a style for many years to come – as well as morph as your style changes. The glaze and finish of the ceramics mean that they are timeless, elegant classics, perfect for both the formal dinner party setting and the everyday meals we enjoy with family.
There is also a range of different items too, from ramekin dishes that make for a fantastic individual soufflé to snack dishes for buffets and parties. There are roasting dishes, fish pie dishes, divided dishes, lidded casserole dishes, rectangular roasters, square dishes and more. In your kitchen cupboards, you need an oven to tableware that is useful and versatile. The fact that it looks good too, makes this kind of ceramic ware a must.
Cast Iron Cookware
Cast iron is a material that provides the modern cook with so many benefits. Aside from being non-stick – a healthier way to cook because you need no or very little fat to sauté or fry – there are pleasing solidness and weight to the various pan sizes in the range.
But what about the benefits? Aside from some fantastic colors (who could resist pomegranate red?), there are many reasons why you should consider cast iron pans and skillets;
· They last a lifetime (and longer) – whether you cook with a cast iron pan once a week or several times in a day, it is a material that doesn’t decompose or fade in the service it gives.
· Hotter – turn the hob down a notch or two but still, your food will sizzle and cook as cast iron is a great conductor of heat.
· Iron intake – there is some suggestion that cooking with cast iron adds a little more iron to your diet, not a bad thing in most cases.
· Affordable – cast iron pans last much, much longer than any other pans made from other materials. A one-time investment is all that is needed.
· Versatile – some people opt for the one-pan-does-everything approach whilst others like the different sizes, as well as investing in specialist pans such as the skillet pan. Either way, you will find that cast iron pans are versatile. And because the material doesn’t pick up smells or food residue, you can create a dessert in the pan that last night, created a curry.
With such versatility and style, the Denby Pottery range is worth more than just a glance. The only problem might be choosing only a select few pieces when they all look – and function – so well.
