Designed to do the heavy lifting for you, we put the Ironclad Co. cookware range to the test to inspire and delight your taste buds for the entertaining season ahead!

Aotearoa New Zealand since 2019 the Ironclad Co. is a small local business garnering a global community of people who care about the food they eat and how they cook it. Ironclad’s cookware range has been designed to last for generations (literally) and their pans are beautiful to cook in. They bring the heat, making them perfect for searing, stewing, glazing and baking. I am obsessed with pulling these hunks of iron excellence out for any, and all, meals!

To show off the cookware range’s versatility I’ve opted for a menu perfect for alfresco dining and entertaining. A showstopper onion and kūmara tarte tatin for entrée; a nostalgic pineapple and cherry-glazed ham for main course with duck fat potatoes and salsa verde for some side action; and to finish, my Lolly s’more and choc chip skillet cookies – ’cause why can’t we have our cake and eat it too!

For those seeking some bring-aplate inspiration I have you covered with a family-size cheese scone bread to add to the lunch table or to be pulled out for a delicious Christmas morning breakfast. Yumbles!
