French Double Handled Confit Pot #205

French Confit Pot # 201

French confit pots, or “pots à confit” in French, are traditional earthenware pots used in the making and storage of confit, a classic French cooking technique. Confit typically refers to the preservation of meat, often duck or goose, by cooking it slowly in its own fat and then storing it submerged in that fat. The confit pots are designed to withstand the low, slow cooking process and are often glazed to prevent moisture loss during cooking and storage.

These pots are usually wide and shallow, allowing for even cooking and ample space for the meat to be submerged in fat. They can range in size from small individual portions to large pots for larger cuts of meat. In addition to their functional purpose, French confit pots also have an aesthetic appeal, often adorned with traditional designs or simple rustic finishes that add to the charm of serving dishes cooked in them. They are not only practical cooking vessels but also cultural artifacts that reflect the rich culinary heritage of France.
