Uzbek Cast Iron Kazan 40 L with Lid is a traditional cooking vessel handmade by Uzbek craftsmen. It is intended for preparing larger quantities of food during family celebrations, events, picnics, camping and outdoor recreation.

The kazan is made from 100% cast iron, has a solid construction and walls approximately 9 mm thick. Cast iron heats up gradually, distributes heat evenly throughout the vessel and retains the temperature for a long time. As a result, food cooks evenly and remains warm even after the heat has been reduced.

Uzbek Cast Iron Kazan 40 L with Lid is particularly suitable for preparing traditional pilaf, but it can also be used to cook shurpa, soups, stews, meat, vegetables, goulash, sauces, roasts and other dishes.

This model has a rounded outer bottom and a traditional spherical inner shape. This construction helps concentrate and evenly distribute heat across the bottom and walls of the kazan. A suitable kazan stove, tripod or stable stand is required for use.

The inner surface of the kazan is fully polished, making it smoother and more convenient to use and maintain. The kazan has already been factory seasoned and prepared for use. There is no technical grease or industrial oil inside it.

Full re-seasoning is not required before the first use. It is recommended only to heat a small amount of vegetable oil to further clean the surface of possible production dust and prepare the kazan for its first cooking session.

Uzbek Cast Iron Kazan 40 L with Lid is suitable for approximately 32–45 people. Depending on the type of dish and portion size, it can prepare approximately 45–60 servings of food.

The kazan can be used both with and without the lid. The included aluminium lid helps retain heat, moisture and the aroma of the food during cooking.
