Dutch ovens from Le Creuset are well-suited to a variety of cooking tasks. The oval shape of this Dutch oven accommodates longer cuts of meat or poultry. Made from cast iron for even heat distribution and superior heat retention. The domed lid fits tightly to help retain heat, moisture and flavor. Oversized loop handles offer a secure grip and even weight distribution for easy lifting while wearing oven mitts.
Named after the allium fundamental to French cuisine, Shallot is a whisper of color between the palest shades of purple and pink. Le Creuset suggests pairing this delicate next-generation neutral with Oyster as you add to your collection. The exterior enamel resists chipping and cracking. The durable, nonreactive interior enamel promotes caramelization, resists staining, and prevents sticking to make cleanup easy.
