Look after it (especially the interior enamel - read Le Creuset’s instructions on their website) and it’ll do you for life.
Yeah, I’m not looking to baby it and keep it 100% pristine but I’m gonna try to keep it going for the rest of my life.
Good choice, if you can afford them.I have a similar one by the same brand. Even the same colour. They’re very heavy, but it will last longer than I will.
Yeah. At a regular price I could never convince myself to get one. I do believe they’re worth what Le Creuset are asking for them however. The enamel is very high quality. A cheaper piece will do the same jobb though.
Damn, you must be buff as hell to be able to still lift this thing with just one arm, balancing on one leg!
I’m just surprised the French still allow payment in body parts tbh
We use ours several times a week. Good for making bread in, stews, any other meat in sauce type meals.
Yep, it’s a very useful tool!
Nice. We have some enamelware I made a roast in a couple months ago and I still think about it sometimes lol
What a crock.
I love these enamelled cast irons and that’s a really sharp color.
Le Creusets’ Volcanic is a very nice color indeed!
Have you seen Paul Allen’s Le Creusets though?
I feel like I’ve missed some really spicy farts…
The wife uses hers to make rice. NGL it makes it twice as good as out of the rice cooker.
Best way to make some chili right there!
I haven’t gotten to that yet. I should do that.
I got a cheap aldi one years ago. Total workhorse. Highly recommended.
I had an undbranded one from a store before this one and it was great! Especially at €40. I hated the handles though. They were slightly underdimensioned and tended to try to break your thumbs when cleaning. Small thing that got annoying over the years. Gave it to someone who needed one.
Radioactive coating?
Nah, this one’s new!
I got a damaged one for £25. The enamel is dented, but it’s still good for breads if I use parchment
It would also work to plant some nice flowers. Not too bad at 25.
Yeah got to be careful with used though, I got a nice commercial grade saucepan at a junk shop last weekend for £3 and it leaks. Only found out after three rounds of scrubbing with bar keepers, too. That’s going to be good for flowers, you want some drainage after all.
Yeah used is more complicated.
Chili, stews, and more. Not a bad buy at all.
Dangit now I’m hungry…
Whatcha making with it?
The latest thing I did was to braise pork ribs for 8 hours. Came out real nice and jucy. Falling off the bone.
Looking good!
What’s the size of this one?
Also, if you don’t mind me asking, what was the sale price?
It’s the 5L 24cm one, a good size tbh! It was 50% off, which is still almost €200.
