[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this dutch oven for almost a week and still cannot get over how beautiful it is! I've had a successful loaf of bread and can't wait for many more!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This looks just as good on the shelf as it does on the stove. Not sure what else you could want, makes amazing bread, perfect stews, and looks good doing it.
I love this pot. The enameled cast iron is amazing to cook with. Unlike traditional raw cast iron it never needs to be seasoned. It can also be easily cleaned with soap and soaked if necessary without the worry of rusting. The matte texture gives great browning by letting the fats and oils fully underneath the food. The braising spikes on the lids concentrate the moisture and bastes my food perfectly. Its great to use on the stove and in the oven. The gorgeous color looks great in my kitchen and when serving at the table.
Terrific size for my family of four. Great for making taco fillings, stews, chowders and steaming vegetables. Absorbs liquids and keeps food really hot without using high flames or temperature. Love the heavy weight. The bottom is thick enough to prevent scorching. Beautiful to serve from. Nice to have a little less to clean at the end of the meal. Great investment piece. Will have many years of cooking with this pan!
a perfect size for a small batch of soup or when cooking a small chicken or piece of meat. Great job browning and searing meat and chicken. Just add the veggies and dinner is served! Straight from stovetop to the table. Easy prep, easy clean up.
Small but Mighty! I live alone so this size is just perfect for me for more dishes than I can count. I use it for small pots of chili, stew for one, macaroni and cheese, i have even baked a small loaf of bread for myself. All the benefits of the larger cocottes but for a smaller household.
Nice sage color. Great size for anything but monster parties! Dimples neath lid continually keep interior moist. Heats evenly/quickly and easy to clean.
This is a great sized vessel for broccoli or green bean casseroles, though it works well for almost any warm baked side dish. I know that it would be a good size for two people but we are a long way from that right now. The color is scrumptious and works beautiful with my grenadine and graphite pieces. love this beauty!
