Bourgeat copper cookware
Bourgeat Copper Saute Pan from MyChefsFavorites.com
Life is a journey and enjoying every aspect of it is the
ultimate success. We like to feel that “good food and great
times” are synonymous with The Mad Dogs and Mad Dog Voyager.
Preparing this food demands top quality ingredients, a little
creativity and great cookware from Bourgeat
Why buy Bourgeat copper cookware?
We thought we knew what good cookware was – were we wrong!
Recently we received our Bourgeat Saute Pan from Don at
MyChefsFavorites.com.
This
Bourgeat Saute pan is incredible, but calling it a pan
doesn’t do it justice!
The body and lid are both solid red copper lined with stainless
steel, however the pan lining is a mirror finished stainless
steel. It’s a heavy pan, heavier than the cast iron pan it is
now replacing as the “daily” pan, but the results are
outstanding. The mirror finish inside the Bourgeat copper pan, with a little care in
cooking, is as close to the best non-stick you’ll ever find and
far healthier! There is a reason that fine restaurants trust Bourgeat and My Chefs Favorites for their
great kitchenware.
We had teased Don from
MyChefsFavorites.com with suggestions of fresh, pan-fried salmon
being the first thing to touch the pan, however we received the
pan a little too early in the fishing season. We then decided
the next best thing would be to pan-frying some fresh organic
chicken. With the chicken brined and spiced, we turned on a
medium flame under the Bourgeat and waited with anticipation.
Once warmed, a little olive oil was dribbled in the Bourgeat
copper pan, swirled
about in went the chicken…
To anyone who has tried cooking chicken in a non-nonstick pan,
you knew what we were thinking “…This chicken’s going to stick
like crazy!...”. A few minutes later, using the bamboo spatula
(to protect the mirror finish) the first chicken breast was
flipped over – it didn’t stick! In fact all four of the chicken
breasts were nicely browned and nothing stuck thanks to our
Bourgeat Copper Saute Pan!
Once done browning, the chicken was slipped onto a broiler pan
while the onions and fried rice were slid into the heavy duty Bourgeat
pan.
Same deal, same results! The rice browned without sticking. The
mirror finish of the Bourgeat copper pan did exactly what Don
from MyChefsFavorite.com said it
would!
