Iron Chef cookware is produced using a new proprietary casting technology that enables the production of lightweight, thin walled cast iron cookware. The technology involves a new process, a special alloy, and unique tooling to create an iron casting with less porosity and more ductility. As a result the casting is not as brittle as conventional cast iron and can be cast into thickness that are less than half as thick. So each piece of Iron Chef cookware weights about half as much as its traditional counterpart. Iron Chef cookware has captured the key benefits of cast iron cookware--even heat distribution, compatability with induction cooktops, good temperature control, and good heat retention--without the uncomfortable excess weight. And by using tempered cast glass lids, Iron Chef cookware further keeps its weight under control without sacrifice in performance or appearance. Each piece of Iron Chef cookware has two coats of high-fired enamel on the outside, one coat of enaml plus Whitford's highly durable, premium Quantanium non-stick interior. To keep the weight down, all attachment hardware is cast aluminum. And to remind us of the Iron Chef's Asian origins, the generously sized handles are made from burnished bamboo. Iron Chef cookware is a new concept in cooking. It provides all the positive of cast iron while covercoming the weight problem of traditional cast iron cookware. It is available in a tight collection of the most important items, features a clean, contemporary design, comes in fashion forward colors and carries a highly recognized brand.
