Know before you buy
The shallow, oval shape provides a wider cooking surface, which is ideal for searing larger cuts of meat or arranging poultry without overcrowding. This design also makes it easier to serve directly from the pot at the table.
No, this piece comes ready to use right out of the box. The enameled cast iron interior does not require seasoning and is designed to resist sticking and staining.
Yes, the enameled cast iron base is fully compatible with induction cooktops, as well as gas, electric, and ceramic stovetops.
The lid features a specialized underside design that catches evaporating moisture and directs it back onto the food as droplets. This process keeps your braises and roasts consistently moist and flavorful throughout the cooking time.
While the manufacturer states it is dishwasher-safe, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water to maintain the longevity and luster of the enamel finish.
This Dutch oven is oven-safe up to 500°F, making it suitable for high-heat roasting and baking recipes.
