Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 9-1/2-Quart Oval French Oven, Cherry Red

This oval French oven (some might call it a Dutch oven) holds 9-1/2 quarts, a generous size for all your simmering, baking, and roasting needs. The exterior comes in a choice of several bright, modern colors, while the interior keeps a more neutral tone to showcase your cuisine. The enamel resists cracking and staining and is best cared for when the contents are stirred with nylon, wood, or silicone utensils. It's also so smooth that food particles tend not to stick, making cleaning by hand or in the dishwasher a snap. Made in France, the Le Creuset French oven is guaranteed to be free of defects for the lifetime of the original owner, whether self-purchased or received as a gift. --Ann Bieri

Product Description
This striking oval Dutch oven by Le Creuset is a comfort-food favorite, because it absorbs and retains heat more efficiently as your pot roast, chicken and vegetables slowly braise and stew. It includes two convenient loop handles and a tight-fitting lid that helps seal in moisture and flavor. Constructed of cast iron to absorb heat quickly, distribute it evenly and retain it for maximum efficiency, even at low temperatures. Porcelain enamel surface won't react with food, and doesn't absorb odors or flavors. Elegant enough to take right to the table. Oven-safe to 450 degrees F and dishwasher-safe.
