Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 5-1/2-Quart Round French Oven, Caribbean



Lifetime of enjoyment ahead
I believe this is the the best size dutch oven for anyone. It's perfect for a medium roast with veggies, soups or stews, etc. Very easy to clean. This pot is approx. 10 1/2 inches across the top opening and 4 1/2 inches deep. Not too big -- not too small. You'll be grabbing this pot for almost everything you do.

Soups, Stews, and Braising Meats made easy!
I love this pot! And, I love how it looks on my kitchen stove. Unlike my other pots and pans, this one stays out and adds to the decor of my kitchen - I love the pop of color. Deciding on the color, size and shape was difficult for me ... it took me 2 months of deciding (I wish I was joking). After much (and then some) deliberation, I got the round 5 1/2 quart french oven Le Creuset in carribean.

It's been over 6 months since I've purchased this, and I'm always surprised as to how much I use my french oven. They are so versatile and can be used to make anything from soups, stews, and pot roasts, to braised short ribs, to baked no-knead bread. It has great even-heat distribution and heat retention, which will cook food uniformly. Also, I love that I can use this on both the stove and in the oven, which is invaluable in cooking. Plus, they're so durable, they will literally last for decades. Maybe this is why it took me so long to decide on the color ... that's a long...

Love it!
I can't say enough good things about this product. No matter what I cook be it stew, pot roast, or pork tenderloin...it comes out so tender. The cooking surface really makes for even distribution when cooking. It is so easy to wash the food just melts right off. One heed of advice you need to let it cool completely before washing otherwise the surface becomes not non-stick. I love this product!
