Know before you buy
No, the porcelain enamel finish means this pot requires no seasoning. You can start cooking with it immediately.
Yes, the heavy-duty cast iron construction is fully compatible with induction cooktops, as well as gas, electric, ceramic, and halogen ranges.
No, this Dutch oven is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the quality of the enamel finish, it should be washed by hand.
This Dutch oven is oven-safe up to 500°F, making it suitable for high-heat tasks like baking crusty artisan bread.
The lid is designed with interior bumps that collect rising steam and condense it back onto the food. This process keeps your stews and braised meats moist throughout the cooking process.
The interior is coated in durable porcelain enamel, which is not a chemical nonstick coating. While it is easy to clean, you may want to use a small amount of oil or butter to prevent sticking during high-heat searing.
