Copper and stainless steel jam pan

How do I use a copper jam pan?

Similar to a cauldron, a copper jam pan is ideal for cooking jams. Copper allows the fruit's acidity and natural pectin to develop. As a result, the jam holds together better, so you add less sugar in the copper jam pan than in other cooking utensils. The copper jam pan also ensures controlled cooking of the jam, while distributing the heat evenly. Make sure that the temperature of the jam does not exceed 110°C. This is the point at which fructose turns to caramel. For this, a suitable thermometer is essential. Also, to avoid scratching your copper jam pan, it's important to adapt your mixing utensils, avoiding metal. Instead, use a spatula or ladle made of copper, wood, plastic or silicone. Finally, once you've finished your jam, we recommend that you clean a copper basin in lukewarm water with a non-abrasive sponge and a mild dishwashing detergent. Do not use a dishwasher.
