Swissmar Lugano Replacement Cast Iron Fondue Pot, Matte Black

Shaped like a traditional ‘Caquelon’, the cast iron Lugano fondue pot provides the perfect even heat distribution for cheese fondue. The pot is enameled inside and provides even heat distribution. It can be used on all heat sources and is easy to clean. The bottom of a caquelon requires a thickness sufficient to prevent burning of the melted cheese when the vessel is placed over a spirit burner at the table. Nevertheless, an encrusted layer of cheese forms on the bottom called the Grossmutter in German, La Religieuse in French, which is released when the fondue has been consumed and is shared between the diners.
