Perfect for simmering mulled wine, poaching eggs, boiling pasta and making homemade applesauce, this cast iron saucepan is clad in vibrant red-orange enamel, rendering each piece impervious to acid, alkali, odors and stains. Le Creuset's signature flame color takes its inspiration from the raw beauty of molten iron being poured from a crucible, or "creuset" in French. Designed with a helper handle for safe lifting and a long, graceful ergonomic handle, this pan has a close-fitting lid that creates a blanket of heat for even cooking. The saucepan is compatible with all types of heat sources, including grills and induction stoves.
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.
