Uzbek Cast Iron Kazan 110 L is a traditional cooking vessel handcrafted by Uzbek craftsmen. It is designed for preparing large quantities of food for family celebrations, events, picnics, camping, and outdoor recreation.

The kazan is made of 100% cast iron, has a massive construction, and approximately 15 mm thick walls. Cast iron heats up gradually, distributes heat evenly throughout the vessel, and retains temperature for a long time. As a result, food cooks evenly and stays warm even after the heat is reduced.

Uzbek Cast Iron Kazan 110 L is especially suitable for cooking traditional pilaf, but it can also be used to prepare shurpa, soups, stews, meat, vegetables, goulash, sauces, roasts, and other dishes.

This model has a round outer base and a traditional spherical inner shape. This construction helps concentrate and distribute heat evenly across the bottom and walls of the kazan. Use requires a suitable kazan stove, tripod, or stable stand.

The inner surface of the kazan is fully polished, making it smoother and easier to use and maintain. The kazan is already pre-seasoned at the factory and prepared for use. There is no technical grease or technical oil inside.

Before the first cooking, full re-seasoning is not required. It is recommended only to heat a small amount of vegetable oil to additionally clean the surface from possible manufacturing dust and prepare the kazan for first use.

Uzbek Cast Iron Kazan 110 L is suitable for approximately 130-180 people. Depending on the type of dish and portion size, it can prepare approximately 150-200 portions of food.

This model is supplied without a lid.

  1. Remove rust with a firm sponge, brush, or fine abrasive material.
  2. Rinse the kazan with warm water.
  3. Dry completely.
  4. Apply a thin layer of vegetable oil.
  5. Heat the kazan slightly to restore the protective layer.
