Flame Ceramic:
Natural Products: Produced using raw materials taken directly from the surrounding countryside: non-treated clay, sand, filtered water and mineral oxides for the colourful glazes. This allows you to cook in total safety. There is no lead, cadmium or nickel in our products, which means that there is no risk of contamination while cooking.
Delicate Cooking: Contrary to metallic cooking utensils, the Flame ceramic is an excellent heat diffuser (not a conductor). Cooking is therefore gentle: the food does not burn and all the flavours are kept intact. Very high temperatures are unnecessary and it's better to always start on a low heat. This even heat distribution means that the ingredients do not burn during cooking and conserve all their vitamins.
Healthy Cooking: The absence of metal in allows you to cook without oxidizing the food, thus retaining all the vitamins and nutritive qualities present in the ingredients. What's more, the highly resistant glaze allows cooking with a minimal amount of fat, while the non-porous ceramic avoids the absorption of smells or water and makes it easy to clean.
Resistance Against Mechanical Shocks: During everyday use, there are many opportunities to bang a dish or a set of plates. Particularly resistant to shocks, Flame ceramic is even used in restaurants!
Resistance Against Temperature Changes: A dish or stewpot should be able to withstand wide variations in temperature. Flame ceramic allows the product to be taken directly from the freezer to the hot oven (+290°C).
Resistance Against Fading Colours: Heat, the dishwasher or sharp instruments will all have an ageing effect on a product. The glaze is particularly resistant to the dishwasher and the most aggressive of detergents.
