Why is it worth cooking with a lid on?

Cooking with a lid on has many advantages. The first and most important is saving money and time. If you invest in high-quality copper pots and choose the appropriate copper lids, cooking becomes quick, easy, and enjoyable, while also being cost-effective.
Cooking with a lid on is taught in the early years of culinary school. By using copper lids, heat is retained in the saucepan, which heats up faster, and the ingredients inside become soft and ready to eat in a short time. This reduces cooking time, and consequently, the bills for gas or electricity in the case of induction or electric cookers become lower, even by several dozen zlotys.

Another advantage of copper lids is that they prevent splattering fat on the pan and keep the dish in the pot. This maintains the cleanliness of the cooker and adjacent countertops. Moreover, all the nutrients from the cooking ingredients remain in the covered dish.
However, it is worth noting that legumes such as peas, lentils, beans, and cabbage should not be covered while cooking.


How to choose the best lid for a pot and pan?

It is worth buying lids for pots and pans from reputable sellers. Typical aluminium covers of unknown origin can lead to aluminium seeping into the food, harming the health of household members and their guests. Additionally, when heated, they can cause dangerous burns.

The most popular are glass or stainless steel lids. The best, however, are copper lids, made in Italy by trusted craftsmen for whom lid production has become a tradition. The advantage of copper lids is that they do not contain harmful and allergenic metals, are airtight, and conduct heat well, retaining it in the saucepan. They are also resistant to high temperatures. Another aspect to consider when purchasing copper lids is the handles. They should be safe, meaning they do not heat up.


How to match a lid to a pot?

When buying luxury copper lids, consider their size. They must perfectly fit the size of the copper pot or copper pan. This ensures they are effective during cooking, frying, and stewing. Using an incorrectly sized copper lid in relation to the dish can extend rather than shorten the cooking time.

When purchasing a copper lid for a pot, consider both its diameter and the diameter of the dish. The diameter of the pot or pan should be measured from edge to edge. This way, you know what size copper lid to choose.

Copper lids are characterised not only by excellent thermal conductivity, allowing for reduced electricity or gas bills, but also by high-quality craftsmanship, appropriate thickness, and modern, unique design. They are available in traditional round shapes for luxury copper pots, as well as rectangular ones for pans or copper baking dishes, and oval ones for stewing in a roaster. Their design and patterning perfectly complement both classic and modern kitchens, serving not only as practical equipment but also as a decorative element, hung on a special lid rack on the wall.

Elegant copper lids can be purchased separately, as needed, or as a complete set with copper pots and copper pans. By also purchasing copper mugs, cake moulds, baking trays, and copper baking dishes, you can create an exclusive kitchen with luxurious equipment.
