This Cataplana is an authentic Portuguese Cataplana hammered and tinned with copper, manufactured in Barcelos in Northern Portugal. Due to its traditional manufacturing, this Cataplana is a healthy and solid utensil that will remain intact after years of use.

If you use induction cookers, I recommend the Cataplana special induction cooker.

Why I love it

• The first advantage of a Cataplana is its cooking mode: fast, requiring only a little fat and preserving the texture and taste of the ingredients.
• The second advantage of a Cataplana is that it is used to prepare, cook and present the dish at the table.

Characteristics

• Traditional cataplana in copper-tinned aluminium.
• Uniform heat distribution due to copper coating
• Flat bottom for gas or electric fire (not induction compatible)
• Diameter: 36 cm
• Capacity: 8/10 people

When the cooking is finished, bring your Cataplana directly to the table. It is designed for this purpose and its lid will keep your dish warm. You will thus reinforce the typically Portuguese side of your cooking, surprise your guests who will appreciate your recipes even more.
