About this work
Pottery in Vitória, Espírito Santo, Brazil. Capixaba pans, specially panelas de barro, are made with black clay and glazed with mangrove tree sap. After they are shaped and fired, sap is re-applied. This blackens the clay and makes it water resistant. The pan must be seasoned with oil a couple of times before use. Cassole pans are very important to Vitória, and the city is home to a grassroots organization of pan-makers known as Associação das Paneleiras de Goiabeiras. They are typically used to prepare the Moqueca capixaba dish in a clay pot cooking process. Crédito obrigatório: Vitor Jubini/MTur
