Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 5-1/2-Quart Round French Oven, Red
Customer Review: If you only have ONE pot in the house, make it this one...
Summary: 5 Stars
This is IT--for soups, stews, and anything else that you need...it is the ideal size for one or two people--or even more depending on what you're cooking. A decent-sized chicken or pot roast fits perfectly. This pot WILL last forever--when my Mom remarried, my stepdad had one in orange in the house from the 60's and except for an age patina on the outside (gas stove) the INSIDE was still perfect, and it still makes the best food I've ever tasted. Your soup/stews will NOT burn or stick--during my first "test flight" with my pot, I accidentally got on the phone whilst making chicken soup (ooops)...While the skinside of the chicken was a bit browner where it had been against the enamel, it didn't stick, even though the stockpot was at rolling boil. BTW, this also makes killer baked beans and other one-dish wonders...case in point; Farberware's handles are only good up to 275 degrees F or so; these babies can and do go up to 450--this means that if you wanted to (let's say) make chicken n dumplings and then finish it in a high oven, you could. JUST STOP READING THIS REVIEW and GO BUY the pot already! :) My one criticism is that the yellow color for all Le Creuset stuff looks pretty online but looks pretty chokey in reality.
Description of Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 5-1/2-Quart Round French Oven, Red
Le Creuset L25012667 Enameled Cast Iron Round French Oven 5 1/2 qt. CherryThis 5-1/2-quart French oven by Le Creuset is the most forgiving pan I've ever used. If you just happen to forget you're sautéing onions for a soup while you answer the telephone, there's no need to worry--the onions won't burn. Enameled cast iron has been recognized as one of the best materials available for cookware because it retains heat and promotes gentle, even cooking at low heat ensuring that the best flavor is brought out from the ingredients. It's perfect for use on any heat source--gas, electric, radiant, ceramic, halogen, induction, or solid fuel. There's also a tight-fitting, enameled cast-iron lid that helps seal in heat and flavor. Food will be kept hot as you bring it to the table for serving. And you will certainly want to serve out of this beautiful piece--the deep color and shiny finish will brighten any table setting. --Jane DePaolo
