Cooking with cast iron
Enameled cast iron is a remarkable and robust material that performs well with modern requirements for food preparation and cooking. Whether you choose to stir-fry, slow-cook a casserole, sear a steak or bake a cake, there is a shape that is suitable. Cast iron performs well for either slow cooking or high-temperature searing.
Cast iron can be used reliably on any heat source, including induction, and with any oven or grill. It has the ability to retain heat efficiently, which allows for use of lower heat settings in stove-top and oven cooking. On the table, a hot covered dish will keep food hot for second servings.
Cast iron can also be used to keep foods cold. A chilled dish becomes an ideal cold food server on a hot summer day. It can also be placed in the freezer for food storage or advanced food preparation.
Heat recommendations
Le Creuset cast iron cookware can be used on all heat sources including gas, electric solid plate or radiant ring, vitro-ceramic glass, induction, and ovens fired by gas, oil, coal or wood. When using any glass-topped stove, always lift the pan when moving it; never slide it, as this may damage the stove-top or the base of the pan.
Always match the pan’s base size to the stove-top heat zone to maximize efficiency, and to prevent overheating of the pan sides or damage to the handles.
Gas flames must always be confined to the base area, and must never extend around the sidewalls of the pan. Long handles should be positioned safely where they do not hang over the front of the stove or other heat zones.
Cleaning and Care
Always cool a hot pan for a few minutes before washing.
Do not plunge a hot pan into cold water. While Le Creuset’s enamel is designed to be the most durable on the market, thermal shock may still occur, resulting in cracking or loss of enamel.
If there are food residues, fill the pan with warm water and let soak for 15 to 20 minutes before washing. A brush can be useful for removing small food deposits, or for cleaning between the ribs on grills. Do not use scourers or abrasive cleaners on the cooking surface. Nylon or soft abrasive pads or brushes can be used to remove stubborn residues.
To avoid damaging the enamel, do not use metallic pads or harsh abrasive cleaning agents.
Light stains or metal marks caused by metal tools can be removed with Le Creuset cookware cleaner. An occasional cleaning with this product will also retain the new appearance of your pans.
Never store pans while they are still damp. Store pans in a dry cupboard or airy space away from steam.

High heat temperatures should only be used for boiling water for vegetables or pasta, or for reducing the consistency of stocks or sauces. High heats should never be used to preheat a pan before lowering the heat for cooking. Cast iron retains heat so efficiently that overheating will cause food to burn or stick.
The vitreous enamel surface is impermeable and therefore ideal for raw or cooked food storage, and for marinating with acidic ingredients such as wine.

- Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2019This is now my second-most used Le Creuset pot that I own. It is very small and perfect for browning butter, making a glaze or heating soup for one. I reach for it all the time to do little tasks that I used to have to haul out a bigger pan for. It heats quickly and evenly and is easy to clean. Don’t be surprised by how small it is—all the info you need is right there in the dimensions, volume and weight listed. But I find it incredibly useful, and it is beautiful on my stove as well. If you love to cook and bake, this is a very worthwhile purchase.

I have a very large Dutch oven and a medium size but this one in the Flame color is just beautiful and perfect for small cooking jobs! I can make eggs in here, melt butter and make sauces and rice! It will always be put on my stove because it is perfectly beautiful!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2016Color: MarseilleVerified PurchasePerfect. Beautiful and great quality. Clean up is so easy. Perfect size for meals for 1 to 2 people. Also good size for desserts and side dishes. When not in use for cooking , I keep onions and garlic in it on the counter. It also is the perfect size for my counter top convection oven.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2015Color: CeriseVerified PurchaseWhat can I say? I have the 1, 2, 3 1/2 & 5 1/2 qt Dutch ovens. I have been replacing my Calphalon with Le Creuset & wish I had done this years ago. Don't get me wrong, I've loved my Calphalon it has served me well, but nothing can compare to the way the enameled cast iron heats & cooks. It simmers perfectly, it retains heat & is great to serve in. The 1 qt is ideal for sauces, small servings of rice, pasta, reheating single servings of soups.

This one came perfect, but once we received one with a small chip in the paint on the edge of the lid. These are pretty expensive so it helps to wait for a sale. This particular one is small, which is perfect for making sauces and small soup recipes. Be sure to pay attention to the size before ordering.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2018Color: FlameVerified PurchaseThis is my new favorite Le Creuset - it is small but works well for the small steps you need to do like, boiling eggs, melting butter, heating up canned beans, etc. It also looks nice just sitting on top of the stove. I am very glad that I picked this one up.

Color: MarseilleVerified PurchaseSi bien el producto, vendedor y envío estuvo maravilloso, creo que no especifica bien el tamaño de la olla. Es perfecta para hacer comida para 2 personas. Al ser de huerro fundido puedes usarlo en la estufa y en el horno. Gran producto!
- Chang B.Reviewed in Singapore on June 16, 2020
3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed. Looks like I have to get mine from the store instead.
Color: CeriseVerified PurchaseSuspect this is not a new item or a display item? The box looks like it has been opened and closed 100 times as well as punctured at the sides.
There is some bubble wrap in a corner of the box but not wrapped around the lid or the pot.
There are 4 plastic thingy to protect the lid from mashing itself against the pot but only 3 is fitted. Resulting in scratches at the lid and paint transfer to the edge of the pot.
I was wondering why this pot was different in price(cheaper) from other colors. Now I think I know why.
If its a 50 dollar pot I would have accepted it. But it's not, and I expect the quality to be mint for such an expensive pot thus returning it.
