{"title":"Copper Cookware","description":"\u003cp\u003eCopper has been the material of Anatolian kitchens for centuries — not because it photographs well, but because it works. Copper heats faster and more evenly than any other cooking material, responds immediately to temperature changes, and produces results that stainless steel and aluminum approach but never quite match.
