Product Description :
Le Creuset Signature 5.5 qt Round French Oven - Deep Teal
Enameled cast iron is a remarkable and robust material that performs
well with modern requirements for food preparation and cooking. Whether
you choose to stir-fry, slow-cook a casserole, sear a steak or bake a
cake, there is a shape that is suitable. Cast iron performs well for
either slow cooking or high-temperature searing.
Cast iron can be
used reliably on any heat source, including induction, and with any
oven or grill. It has the ability to retain heat efficiently, which
allows for use of lower heat settings in stovetop and oven cooking. On
the table, a hot covered dish will keep food hot for second servings.
Cast
iron can also be used to keep foods cold. A chilled dish becomes an
ideal cold food server on a hot summer day. It can also be placed in the
freezer for food storage or advanced food preparation
High heat
temperatures should only be used for boiling water for vegetables or
pasta, or for reducing the consistency of stocks or sauces. High heats
should never be used to preheat a pan before lowering the heat for
cooking. Cast iron retains heat so efficiently that overheating will
cause food to burn or stick.
