Le Creuset 3.5 Quart Sauteuse Pan - Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven with Lid, Multiple Colors - Perfect for Braising, Searing & Slow Cooking

The Le Creuset Sauteuse is indispensable in the kitchens of home cooks and professional chefs alike. Long recognized for its strength and durability, cast iron is the prime material for slow-cooking, braising and roasting, thanks to its ability to maintain even and consistent heat. The enameled oven needs no seasoning, and it’s suitable for both stovetop and oven use.

Le Creuset’s Signature Sauteuse is the perfect size and shape for sauces, stews, side dishes, shallow frying, one pot meals and more. A cross between a deep sauté pan, fry pan and a Dutch Oven, the curved base and lower sides make it ideal for whisking sauces, tossing stir-fries, stirring creamy risottos, and serving bubbling casseroles from stove to oven to table.

Cast iron can be used reliably on any heat source, including induction, and with any oven or grill. It has the ability to retain heat efficiently, which allows for use of lower heat settings in stovetop and oven cooking.

Compatible with all cooktops; pan is oven-safe up to 500°F, tempered glass lid is oven-safe and broiler-safe up to 425°F
