What is Romertopf Clay Bakeware?

The Romertopf is an ideal cooking method to create healthy, great tasting and easy to prepare meals. Romertopf lovers attest to the superb results in over 40 countries around the globe. This success is the selection of several different, but specific porous clays and unglazed interior and exterior, which allows the Romertopf to absorb a great deal of water. The clay pot must be soaked in water before every use.

Romertopf clay pots are available in a variety of sizes. They are unglazed to ensure perfect absorption, so that ample moisture is available in the cooking cavity.

Today Romertopf clay pot cookware is manufactured in Mexico and meets the exacting, original German standards for quality, longevity and safety. The strictest of supervision ensures that Romertopf's natural terra cotta contains no lead or cadmium.

The Romertopf is made of special porous clay and is unglazed inside and out allowing it to "breathe" during the cooking process. By soaking the pot in water before cooking, moisture is absorbed by the clay. The tiny water particles are released during cooking, penetrating and blending with the natural food juices, increasing flavor, and tenderness-enhancing aroma.

The Romertopf Clay Baker is primarily designed to be used in regular ovens where it gives you the most delicious and exciting gourmet dishes you have ever dreamed of. Romertopf can also be used in a combination microwave oven with conventional heat. Follow the recommendations of the manufacturer for time and temperature.

Romertopf by Reco uses engineered packaging in order to practically eliminate breakage, a major difference from the other manufacturers.

Romertopf can achieve tasty meals without the addition of salt and/or fats.
