Since 1925, Le Creuset has been handcrafting Enameled Cast Iron
cookware, and particularly Round French Ovens (or Dutch Ovens), in
Northern France. While this popular shape has been around for many
centuries before that, the basic design has changed very little thus
endorsing the cooking qualities that it provides. Generation after
generation has come to cherish the Le Creuset Round French Oven’s
quality, durability, and versatility, and it easily becomes the core
piece in any well-equipped kitchen. The cast iron provides superb heat
retention and distribution, and the enamel is hard-wearing and
non-reactive, making the number of recipes that you can do in this pot
endless: anything from savory rice to braised chicken to mouth-watering
cake. Your imagination is the only limit!
