- Do not cook food straight from the refrigerator; let it reach room temperature.
- Heat slowly, then you can go to full power. This is particularly important if you are using powerful stovetops such as induction.
- Remove handle covers for use in the oven or grill; it's super simple.
- Never plunge a hot pan into cold water.
- The more you use your pan, pot, dish, etc., the more the patina develops, and the better they get!
Netherton Foundry is a family-run business located in south Shropshire.
Once the cradle of the Industrial Revolution, it was the "Silicon Valley" of the 18th century. Today, Netherton Foundry continues the knowledge and traditions of the Shropshire ironmasters of the 18th and 19th centuries, particularly Abraham Darby.
"We want to revisit the values that inspired this incredible period of creativity and energy."
Netherton Foundry has made it their mission to produce everything using materials sourced mainly from Shropshire and neighboring counties. And for subcontracted work, to work only with the best craftsmen in their region.
Netherton Foundry’s other goal is to minimize their impact as much as possible. They already know all their materials and their suppliers.
They only use quality, durable materials.
Every creation can be restored, and actually improves with time!
Everything is recyclable, from the iron to the natural packaging used.
