Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Beautiful enough for the table and durable enough to outlive its lifetime warranty against defects, this French oven is perfect for preparing and ceremoniously serving such dishes as choucroute garni and braised lamb shanks. The oval shape suits poultry and thick cuts of meat while providing room for vegetables. Since it's safe on any stovetop, including induction, as well as in the oven, the pot can also be used for soups and chili. Made of cast iron, with both the exterior and interior clad in two coats of Le Creuset's famous enamel, the pot holds 3-1/2 quarts, perfect for one- and two-person households. Cast iron is unexcelled at heat distribution and retention and enamel is impervious to acids and odors, so the pot cooks food evenly and gently without hot spots and can even be used for marinating and baking. It's also dishwasher-safe. The pot's heavy, tight-fitting lid has a synthetic knob that's ovenproof to 450 degrees F. Like all Le Creuset cast-iron cookware, the pot is hand cast in a one-of-a-kind sand mold and is hand finished at the Le Creuset factory in France. The French oven measures 9 by 12-8/9 by 5-4/5 inches. --Fred Brack
