- Enameled Cast Iron - Covered Round Casserole Skillet with Lid, Oven Safe - 500°F, Even Heat Distribution, 3.3-Quart, White

THIs is my 47th pan that i’ve bought. you can’t beat the cooking process and the flavor of whatever food or dish you might want to prepare. THE ENAMELED CAST Iron pans are the only pans that i use in my kitchen. I have skillets, dutch ovens and different size pans that i use for baking bread to making pot roasts. The nice thing about them that they are very pretty and cleaning is a dream.

This is now my go to pan! Love the way it heats up and holds heat. Perfect for making pancakes or making sauces.

This pan arrived in an outer box that had been smashed and retaped, but the inner box was undamaged and the pan and lid had no chips. It's a nice light cream or off-white color inside and out, with what appear to be bare dark cast iron rims, which is probably good because the rims might be the areas most prone to chipping. I would have preferred the gradient blue color but only solid white was available when I ordered. The dimensions are given and I have other cast iron cookware, but this 3.3 quart casserole/braiser pan is larger and heavier than I expected. It's a wide, heavy pan and the handles are large enough to grasp easily with potholders. This is my first enameled cast iron and I like it so far. The flat bottom fits my largest cooktop eyes well. I hand washed it, warmed it in a 170-degree oven, and wiped the rims with some canola oil. I've cooked a meatless chili recipe in it which turned out well without sticking, mostly cooked on low. (I cook regular chili in a larger pot.) Hand washing easily cleaned it up like new; no discoloration so far. i'll wipe the rims with a tiny bit of oil again so they won't rust. I'll try to update my review if there is any chipping or other problem after I've cooked with it more. I intended to let it stay on top of my 30" range, but it takes up a lot of the space so I'm undecided on that. The photos show it (on a silicone hotpad to avoid scratches) on my cooktop. As with my other cast iron cookware, I'll have to be careful to set it down very gently and not slide it on my glass cooktop. The directions say to hand wash it, do not use metal utensils (i'm using Vovoly silicone ones), and use only low to medium heat when using on a cooktop, heating it gradually and avoid sudden temperature changes. It is safe in the oven up to high temps. Any stains should be cleaned with baking soda and water, but I've had none so far. It's a pretty pan when new. I hope it doesn't chip in use as some reviews have stated. Edit to update: Still so far so good, but I'm saving the box in case it chips in normal use before the return window ends. I've now cooked a mini pot roast with vegetables, searing the beef in a bit of oil on medium and then cooking on low. Turned out great and was a breeze to hand wash with Dawn dish detergent. Still looks new. However, I'm now wondering if the size and weight will be problematic for me. This is a very heavy pan even for cast iron. I later ordered a 2.25-qt similar pan in another brand and it's much easier to handle and store, but it doesn't hold enough for some one-dish meal recipes. Holds plenty for a large side, though.

I inherited a Cousance (forerunner to LeCreuset) Dutch oven and fell in love with it for many uses, but this pan fits the bill for when I need something broad and shallow. When my 20 year old stove dies and I switch to induction it will also be great. The finish is quite nice and the price in unbeatable.

Ok so beautiful pan with 4 stars , I have the French brand everyone loves, I use them 3-4 times a week and they look brand new still, except the tan color the white turns from use. Right now I’m sitting at 4 stars because it could have been a simple one spot defect, and it’s not enough for me to do an exchange on a pan this price. So I got the pan yesterday, I watched the guy set it down carefully, I made baked pasta in it last night. So I brought everything to 350 degrees after warming to 150 , I have induction stove so I can guarantee you it was 159 warming for 5 min, then 350 to cook hamburger. Then down to 250 to add sauce and noodles. Then the 375 degree oven for 30 minutes. Some time during the over a small chip flew off the handle corner. Ok cons . Obviously the chipping, but I don’t mind for what I paid unless it gets crazy or on the inside. This pan is less than half the size of the biggest French one I have, yet weighs more. Pros. The price and what the pan is and does. It’s a great size it also lets me know that I do indeed have uses for the $400 dollar French one. if this one gets horrible I can purchase one. Most likely it’s going to go to my neighbor in a few months and I’ll get the brand I want. This is a great pan for baked spaghetti, you can fit a pound, chicken baked over rice in the oven, you can easily fit 5+ chicken pieces. You can probably shallow fry some chicken, pork chops ect. It’s a versatile pan you can use a lot. If you can’t afford the fancy ones these will do for now.

Love this pan. Opted for this in place of my large nonstick skillet. It’s heavy! But it cooks beautifully and quickly. Easy to clean. Very happy with this purchase.

Great pan! Great price! Highly recommend.

It is exactly was I was looking for. It cooks beautifully and washes with ease.

Maravilhosa

This is a great buy. Does what it’s meant to do without costing a week’s rent!! It’s sturdy and weighty, distributes heat evenly and cleans so well. Amazon you did well!

Depuis l’achat je m’en sert quasiment tous les jours. La performance thermique est remarquable. Le revêtement n’est pas vraiment anti adhésif mais en faisant mijoter à feu très doux ce n’est pas un problème. Un de mes meilleurs achats sur Amazon.

Fatto molto bene, lo uso principalmente per fare il pane

Der erste Topf ist schon 3 Jahre alt und ist oft in Benutzung ( z.B. Brotbacken ) die Emaille ist noch top nix abgeplatzt. Bei Verfärbungen 1 x im Jahr mit Packpulver, etwas Wasser und einer Bürste schrubben funktioniert perfekt. Nach der gesammelten Erfahrung damit, wird es nicht mein letzter Artikel sein.
