Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Le Creuset 2-3/4-Quart Soup Pot, Kiwi
Customer Review: Good things in small packages
Summary: 5 Stars
I own this in Flame, and use it all the time - in fact, there's a chicken pot pie in the oven as I type. It's lightweight compared to the 5 - 9 Quart French ovens, so it's more maneuverable on the stove top and in the oven, which I appreciate. Its smaller capacity and tapered shape is perfect for 3-person curries, large side dishes, soups and sauces. I also really like it as a vessel for chilling and serving pasta salad and cole slaw.
Though it's an authentic piece of Le Creuset, this item is no longer on their USA website; the larger, 4.25 Quart soup pot is the only size listed. Amazon has slowly phased out several of the colors in the past few months - so if you're interested in an agile, affordable cast iron gem, act soon!
Description of Le Creuset 2-3/4-Quart Soup Pot, Kiwi
The mouth of this gently rounded pot measures 9 inches across, while its flat bottom is only 4 inches, allowing you to use the small burner on your stove for a relatively big pot: the wide surface area will speed any soup or stock reduction you have in mind. Cast iron, of course, has marvelous heating qualities, so heat spreads evenly from this pot's base up its sides. You can also use this soup pot in the oven; loop handles help you carry and lift even the heaviest casserole. The baked-on interior and exterior enamel coating means this pot will not react with any acidic foods and is easy to clean. The glorious enameled colors of Le Creuset's cookware makes it suitable for the table, as well. --Schuyler IngleThe mouth of this gently rounded pot measures 9 inches across, while its flat bottom is only 4 inches, allowing you to use the small burner on your stove for a relatively big pot: the wide surface area will speed any soup or stock reduction you have in mind.
