Cookware pot RIESS high pot 1.5 l 16 cm, model R-0164-049, enamelled cookware

RIESS high pot 1.5 l (16 cm) is an enamelled cookware piece designed for boiling, simmering and reheating small portions. The classic metal body with an enamel finish provides even heat distribution and a chemically stable cooking surface suitable for preparing sauces, soups and stews. Its compact 1.5-litre capacity and 16 cm diameter make it practical for single servings or small family meals and for use on conventional stovetops.

Advantages

The enamel coating creates a non-reactive surface that resists acidic ingredients and prevents metallic taste transfer, while the metal base ensures steady heat conduction across the pot. The size and shape are suited to gentle simmering and precise temperature control. The smooth enamel finish is straightforward to clean and maintains appearance over regular use.

Suitable for

• Boiling vegetables, grains and small pasta portions
• Simmering sauces and soups for single servings
• Reheating leftovers or small portions of stews
• Preparing custards, reductions and small-batch preserves

Key specifications

• Capacity: 1.5 litres
• Diameter: 16 cm
• Material: metal body with enamel coating

How to use

Place the RIESS high pot on a burner sized appropriately for a 16 cm pan to ensure even heating. Use medium to low heat for simmering and reduce heat as needed to avoid burning or sticking. When cooking acidic ingredients such as tomatoes, use gentle stirring and moderate temperatures to preserve the enamel surface. Handle the pot with care when transferring hot contents and use suitable oven mitts or pot holders.

Usage recommendations

To prolong the enamel surface and maintain performance, avoid sudden temperature shocks (for example placing a hot pot under cold water) and use wooden, silicone or nylon utensils to prevent chipping. Clean with warm water, mild detergent and a non-abrasive sponge; avoid harsh scouring powders.
