Reinforced flat bottom cataplana for 3-4 Diners

We present the Reinforced flat bottom cataplana 3-4 Diners, an artisanal Portuguese casserole designed especially for ceramic hob.

Its reinforced flat base will allow you to cook all kinds of food in a healthy way.

Made traditionally with copper on the outside and tin on the inside, this cataplana is unique for its spherical shape, which allows for steaming large quantities of food, providing a healthy, natural, and nutritious character to all dishes.

The cataplana consists of two spherical halves joined by hinges that ensure a tight seal, allowing for the steaming of food. This closing system is similar to that of the lunchboxes of yesteryear and, in fact, cataplanas were precursors to the modern pressure cookers we all know.

To start, a sauté is prepared with oil, garlic, peppers, vegetables, and potatoes. Then, the desired fish or meat, a dash of wine, and some bay leaves or other herbs are added to give it that touch of flavor we all love.

At this point, the cataplana is covered with its top piece and closed to complete the steaming of all the ingredients.

As in any steaming cooking, the main advantage is that the original aromas and flavors of the ingredients are preserved. Thanks to the tight seal of the cataplana, the stews cooked in it will always enhance and highlight all their flavor.

The most famous cataplanas are those of fish or seafood with rice or potatoes, but they can also be made with meat, poultry, pasta, mushrooms, or other mushrooms.

Once the cooking is finished, the presentation of the dish is kept secret until the last moment. The cataplana is brought to the table whole and covered, and it is only opened to start serving and enjoying the food.

Cooking with a cataplana is an art that is perfected over time and a ritual that will undoubtedly capture the attention of all your guests.
