Know before you buy
Yes, the enameled cast iron base is fully compatible with all heat sources, including induction, gas, electric, and ceramic cooktops.
Yes, the entire piece, including the tempered glass lid, is oven-safe up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit, allowing you to transition seamlessly from stovetop searing to oven roasting.
The shallow, wide base provides more surface area, which is ideal for searing meats, reducing sauces, and layering ingredients for dishes like paella or gratins. While it holds 3.5 quarts, its shape makes it better suited for braising and presentation than for deep-frying or boiling large volumes of liquid.
While the casserole is dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water to preserve the luster of the enamel finish over the long term.
The buffet casserole weighs approximately 8.4 pounds. The oversized handles are designed to help you maintain a secure grip, making it easier to maneuver despite the weight of the cast iron.
Le Creuset’s lifetime warranty covers defects in material and workmanship for the life of the product. While it covers the cast iron base, glass lids are typically subject to different wear-and-tear considerations, so it is best to handle them with care to avoid thermal shock or impact damage.
