Teglia Petromax FT12 rotonda in ghisa per forno, adatta per pane e carne, 15 kg

The Petromax Dutch Ovens are cast-iron cookware designed for outdoor activities like camping and travel, as well as for use in the home kitchen. They allow gentle cooking of vegetables, meat and other ingredients in their own juices. Each oven includes a specially designed lid that doubles as a skillet or platter, and the cast-iron construction with a pre-seasoned surface makes them ready for immediate use.

Advantages

Pre-seasoned finish enables immediate use without lengthy preparation. The cast-iron body provides even heat distribution and a specific surface structure that optimises heat transfer, contributing to consistent cooking results and a distinct flavour. Notched carry handles allow safe and comfortable handling, and the design permits stacking for space-saving storage. Lids feature three legs (except model ft1) and a hole for a thermometer to support outdoor cooking techniques.

How to use

Use the Dutch Oven over an open fire, on charcoal or in a kitchen oven. Preheat gradually to avoid thermal shock, add ingredients and cook gently in their own juices for best results. The lid can be used as a skillet or platter; when cooking over coals, place coals on the lid’s feet to provide top heat. Insert a thermometer through the lid hole if required to monitor internal temperature.

Recommendations

For long-term performance, follow basic care: clean after cooling, avoid harsh detergents, and maintain the seasoned surface by occasional oiling. When storing, stack carefully to prevent scratches and use protective layers if needed.
