cast iron pot
Heavy cooking vessel
A cast iron pot is a heavy cooking vessel made from iron cast in a mold.
The thick walls distribute heat evenly and retain it well, making cast iron ideal for slow cooking, braising, and frying.
These pots require seasoning—coating with oil and heating—to prevent rust and create a nonstick surface.
My grandmother's cast iron pot has been in the family for generations.
