Cooking in Clay (English)

Clay cookery is increasing in popularity because of the superior results the moist cooking environment brings to a wide variety of foods. Recipes need less fat, are easy to prepare and don't require extensive monitoring. Meats and poultry cooked in clay are fabulous -- the meat is so tender it falls off the bone, and the flavors are locked in. Breads are light and crisp; vegetables retain color, flavor and nutrients. Versatile clay cookers serve as roasters, brick ovens, steamers, poachers, slow cookers and even soup/stew pots. Also: recipes for breads, soups, entrees, vegetables, side dishes and desserts.
