    Ideas for use

    Getting the most out of your Ruffoni Stockpot

    Stockpots are approximately as tall as they are wide: a clever proportion that maximizes their capacity, meaning you can cook plenty of food at once.

    Fill with water and any veggies found wondering at the back of the fridge for a light and tasty homemade vegetable stock, or add meat and bones for delicious homemade stock which can be used in any number of dishes (our favorite: risotto!). Alternatively, make a flavor base with soffritto, then layer on your favorite seasonal vegetables and simmer gently for endless soup options, nourishing and satisfying. The stockpot can also be used to gently simmer grains or prepare oatmeal for breakfast, or take a page out of all nonnas' book and mix vegetables, legumes and short pasta for a nourishing minestrone that the whole family will enjoy.

    Bring directly to the table to keep your soup warm until serving and elevate any simple supper to special occasion. Store your stockpot right on the stovetop or on a display shelf when not in use to enjoy its warm shine every time you walk into your kitchen.

    USE AND CARE FOR THE OPUS CUPRA COLLECTION

    Taking care of your Ruffoni the right way

    Cooking

    Recommended for use on gas stovetops, open flames (wood, charcoal, barbecue) and in the oven - electric cooktops also possible. Use a burner that is similar in diameter to the cookware, never heat the pot empty and do not exceed 230 C (450 F). To avoid scratching or dulling the polished surface, do not use knives, sharp kitchen tools, corrosive detergents and metal scouring pads.

    Washing and Polishing

    Hand-wash with a soft sponge and mild detergent, and dry immediately with a soft cloth.With use, copper develops a rich patina over time that many love and cherish. To restore a polished shine, use a good copper polish (like Ruffoni Cleaner) or salt with lemon juice/vinegar.

    FAQs

    Is it better stainless steel or tin lining?

    The choice between tin and stainless steel depends on personal preference, as both materials offer excellent cooking performance. Have a look at this comparison chart for a detailed overview.

    To summarize:

    • Tin lining is a traditional, nickel-free choice. It is naturally low-stick and offers unmatched heat responsiveness. However, its maximum recommended temperature is lower than that of stainless steel, and it can be scratched by metal utensils. Please note that after many years of everyday use tin-lined cookware will eventually require re-tinning.

    • Stainless steel lining is scratch-resistant, easier to care for than traditional tin lining, and does not require re-tinning. It is slightly less heat-responsive than tin, requires more attention to prevent sticking, and is generally heavier and more expensive.

    Does stainless steel reduce copper performance?

    High-quality stainless steel linings are applied thinly to preserve copper’s excellent heat conductivity.

    Is stainless steel-lined copper non-reactive?

    Yes, stainless steel is non-reactive and suitable for cooking acidic foods.
