Camp & Garden * | Netherton Foundry 12 Inch Crochta Pan Exactly Discount

When Someone Gets Up At 3 In The Morning To Travel Across Country And Ask You To Make A Pan “Just Like Their Grandmother’S”, You Can Scarcely Refuse.
Which Is Exactly What Happened; Harry Travelled From Norfolk To Sit On Our Doorstep, Waiting For Us To Open Up. With A Cup Of Tea In Hand, He Described His Grandmother’S Pan And Asked If We Could Make Him A Replica.
Intrigued By His Story And In Respect Of The Journey He’D Made To See Us, We Agreed To His Request.
And That Is How The Crochta Pan Was Born.

It Is Hard To Find Any History Of These Pans On The Internet, But Anecdotal Evidence Has Thrown Up Several Stories Of Their Being Used In Norfolk, Of Their Use In So-Called Blackhouses In The Hebrides As Well As Devon, Ireland And As Far Afield As Hungary. Crochta Is The Irish Word For Hanging.

Based On Our Traditional Frying Pans, The Crochta Pan Has An Arched Handle With Hanging Ring And A Useful Pouring Spout. Made From Our Pre-Seasoned Spun Iron, These Are Sturdy, But Not Too Heavy.
Originally Designed To Be Used Hanging Over A Fire, These Pans Are Equally At Home On The Hob.

Important

• Every Time You Use The Pan Heat Slowly From A Low Setting, Before Selecting High Or Full Power, Especially When Using Induction Hobs.
  
• Never Drop A Hot Pan Into Cold Water (It Will Buckle).
  
• Use A Hob/Ring The Same Size As The Pan Base (Small Hobs/Rings Will Warp Big Pans).
  
• Netherton Pans Are Hand Made And Will Not Be A Flat As A Billiard Table So They May Wobble On Induction Hobs.
  
• Wash In Hot Water. Do Not Use Soap Or Detergent. Immediately Dry With A Towel.
