Dutch ovens from Le Creuset are a kitchen staple. The Le Creuset Round Wide Dutch Oven in Shallot has a wide, shallow shape for searing and browning meats, and a larger surface area for reducing liquids. Made from cast iron for even heat distribution and superior heat retention, with a tight-fitting lid to help retain heat, moisture and flavor. The lid features a stainless steel knob. Oversized 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.
