Great Pot - But the Handles?
April 7, 2013
I purchased a few pieces of the professional (2 mm) copper Mauviel pots and pans. I LOVE them all - nothing compares to the way copper performs. The only thing that has me scratching my head is Mauviel's choice of cast iron handles. They heat up very quickly, and once my husband, using a high flame, got the handles so hot that the pot holders fused to the laquered surface of the handles and even the lid. I thought at first that he just had the flame too high, but I did the same thing once on the lid with a normal/low flame. My pot holder stuck, it was so hot. It wasn't some low end pot holder either. It was thick cotton one I got from WS. Mauviel only offered the stainless steel handled pots and pans on their lower copper content pots. The stainless would of course keep cooler than the cast iron. Also, I wonder if it was the laquer more so than the pot holders.
Pros: performance
Cons: cast iron handles
