This cast iron braiser is clad in smooth enamel in a fiery red-orange hue inspired by the raw beauty of molten iron being poured from a crucible—Le Creuset's very first color. The durable coating renders the everyday pan impervious to acid, alkali, odors and stains. Designed with double handles for beautiful balance, the braiser pan lends itself to a variety of cooking methods for a wide range of meals. Topped with a stainless steel knob, the close-fitting lid creates a blanket of heat for even cooking, lending itself to braising and keeping foods warm. The rim of each pan has a specially designed "all-round" lip for drip-free pouring with the right or left hand, and the non-reactive cooking surface does not require seasoning. This everyday pan is perfect for stews, paella or rice and is compatible with all types of heat sources, from gas and electric stoves, to ceramic and glass cooktops, to induction and halogen.

Revered by both professional chefs and home cooks since its 1925 debut, Le Creuset's classic French cookware is prized for its utilitarian beauty and unsurpassed heat retention.
