LE CREUSET Signature Cast Iron Round Casserole, 26 cm - Satin Black

Great pot, expensive but takes your cooking to another level. Great for searing meat and then slow cooking in the oven. The 34 cm creuset pot just about fits in what I would call a normal size oven, but have to angle it in.

Let's be honest, these are outragiously expensive, but they are fantastic!

Töpfe von le Creuset sind kein billiges Vergnügen. Aber wir hatten einen in unserer französischen Ferienwohnung und waren sehr beeindruckt, so dass wir uns schließlich auch einen gekauft haben. Man muss sich an das Gewicht ebenso gewöhnen wie an die Tatsache, dass das Kochgut schneller anbrät, aber wenn man das berücksichtigt und gerade zu Anfang etwas mehr aufpasst, hat man das schnell im Griff und wird mit guten Ergebnissen belohnt. Außerdem ist der Topf sehr schön (wir haben die graue Version) und darf deshalb auch mal auf dem Tisch stehen.

Ela é linda e atende ao requisito de se ter uma panela esmaltada robusta, que segura o calor. Pesada pra lavar, mas não há como ter uma panela de ferro que seja leve, né?

In my opinion, this might just be the ultimate cooking vessel! It truly is a “jack of all trades”, yet it excels in so many!What isn’t this great for? It can handle searing heat, or low and slow, it can easily be transferred from the stove to the oven, and back again. It’s a great heat conductor with fantastic heat distribution so it can bake breads, deep fry, or keep a dish warm for serving. With a little aluminum foil and a small wire rack, you can even turn turn it into quite an effective makeshift mini-smoker!I use the 5.5QT version, which is a nice medium-to-large “all around” size that can comfortably serve 6 people. It’s wide enough to easily use a spatula for flipping (it even sears a nice burger!), yet it’s also tall enough to go all out on nice chunky stew or bake an artisanal loaf of bread.The enamel coating is also an overall upgrade over traditional cast iron. It cleans up reasonably easily, and it won’t react to highly acidic foods such as tomato sauces. While it’s not exactly a non-stick surface, this is actually an advantage because it’s great for creating that perfect fond.On top of it all, it’s beautiful to look at. My Le Creuset Dutch oven sits on my stove as a permanent fixture because I use it for just about everything - from searing steaks to you-name-it!
