Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 3-1/2-Quart Round French Oven, Cherry

The single best pots for doing rich chicken dishes and the like. Conducts heat perfectly, well-balanced and very easly to clean. So many great meals have emerged from these pots that I tend to cook more frequently,especially the more slow-cooking or complex dishes.

I inheirited one ofthese pots and then bought another. Since then I have excused all similarimitations from the kitchen.

If I had to equipt my kitchen with 3cooking pots/pans, this would come right after the skillet and sauce pan.

I have loved the two pieces of LeCreuset that I ordered. I have a glass cooktop (which I curse!) and cookware has to be absolutely flat for good heat transfer. Through the years I have tried various brands (Calphalon, Farberware, etc) and Le Creuset is the best I have ever used. The lid seals tightly, making for an energy efficient design. It has been easy to clean as well and looks great! Ipurchased my first piece in order to bake my favorite no-knead bread recipe: it requires a covered pot to bake it at 450 degrees, and few cookware brands have handles that can withstand that high a temperature. Le Creuset does, and has performed beautifully. It is also great for braising and stewing. Follow directions and do not use the highest heat setting, it is uneccessary and can damage the pot.

This French Oven is just the right size for the two of us.I can fill it halfway for a typical meal, or make a double recipe in order to freeze some for another time.It browns things well, goes easily from stove-top to oven, holds the heat in during long simmering, cleans up quickly with a little soak in warm water, and looks great. I have owned some other products from Le Creuset, and they never disappoint.

I've wanted Le Creuset for 20 years, but could not see spending that much money on a cook pot. Finally, I bought this. I cook a lot of thrifty meals (beans, braising, roasting, soups, stews, chili, and so forth).Everything comes out beautifully, no burned spots, I use lower heat, less liquid, and less time to get even better results than before in my stainless steel pots.

Yes, it's heavy, and yes, you have to hand wash it after use. But like good knives, it's worth the extra trouble and expense for an excellent tool. Would I replace all my cookware with Le Creuset? Absolutely not. For some tasks, I wish I had done it years ago.

Since I'm cooking for two these days, this pot is just the right size.
