Cherry red porcelain enamel coats this large Dutch oven from Le Creuset. The pot's wide, shallow shape browns and sears to perfection, while the large surface area helps reduce sauces quickly. Cast iron maintains even and consistent heat, and the smooth enamel promotes caramelization, resists stains and prevents sticking for easy cleanup. Generously sized to cook six or seven servings, the ombre red Dutch oven makes for a grand presentation of casual weeknight meals as well as 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.
