Saucepan

Description: Copper cookware has been used for many years, because of its high heat conductivity, or ability to transfer heat. This particular pan is lined with tin. Cooking foods in direct contact with the copper can discolor the food. Also, copper may leach into acidic foods, causing an unpleasant taste and sickness.
