Inspired by the pans hunters in Provence used to transform their day's harvest into hearty stews, this gorgeous cast iron cassadou serves as a deep saute pan or small Dutch oven. Enamel in Le Creuset's signature orange-red flame color coats the lidded cast iron pan. The smooth sand-hued interior promotes caramelization, resists stains and prevents sticking for easy cleanup. Topped with a stainless steel knob, the domed lid locks in moisture and circulates heat. The round pot maintains even and consistent heat and has a smooth interior that promotes caramelization, resists stains and prevents sticking for easy cleanup. Sized to cook three to four servings, the display-worthy cassadou stews as well as braises, bakes, simmers and fries for casual weeknight meals and elegant dinners.
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.
