Product Description

Product Description

With its elongated oval shape designed for longer cuts of meat, this 5-quart enameled cast-iron French oven, which measures 9-1/2 by 14 by 6-1/2 inches, works exceptionally well for preparing smaller game, fowl, and poultry like traditional pigeonneau, quail, cornish hen, and chicken. The unit not only easily accommodates larger ingredients, but its functional profile also maximizes convenient side-by-side space on the stovetop.

Made of heavy-duty cast iron, the cookware's colorful, long-lasting exterior enamel resists chipping and cracking, while its durable, nonreactive sand-colored interior enamel offers a smooth surface for cooking and an optimal palette for food presentation. As cast iron is unexcelled for even heat distribution and superior heat retention, and enamel is impervious to acids and odors, the oven browns and cooks food uniformly and gently without hot spots and can be used for marinating, cooking on the stovetop, or finishing in the oven. Two loop cast-iron side handles help ensure a steady grip during transport--even when wearing bulky oven mitts, and the unit's secure-fitting lid locks in heat and moisture while cooking. The lid also comes fitted with a black phenolic knob that's oven-safe up to 350 degrees F. Beautiful enough for the table yet durable enough to outlive its lifetime limited warranty, the French oven can be safely used on any stovetop, including induction, and should be hand washed for best results.

Beautiful enough to bring to the table, yet durable enough to outlive its 101-year warranty against defects, this heavy casserole is perfect for preparing and ceremoniously serving dishes such as choucroute garni and braised lamb shanks. The oval shape handles big cuts of meat and big birds. Use it in the oven or on the stovetop for soups and chili. Made of cast-iron, which is unexcelled for its heat distribution and retention, this French oven cooks foods evenly and gently without hot spots at low temperatures and is suitable for all heat sources. This pan holds 5 quarts and its exterior and interior are clad in two coats of Le Creuset's famous enamel. The plastic knob on its heavy, tight-fitting lid is ovenproof to 450 degrees F. Loop handles facilitate carrying, and the casserole is dishwasher-safe. Like all Le Creuset cast-iron products, it is hand-cast in a one-of-a-kind sand mold and hand-finished at the Le Creuset factory in France. --Fred Brack

Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2007
This pot is the perfect size. It cooks great and cleans easy. It is also beautiful enough to serve in. I have used it often since my purchase and have not been disappointed. It is one of my most expensive pieces, but I think it will last a life time.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a Le Creuset!
Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2013

Yes, the French Oven is hefty - but that also makes it so good and durable. I've had a Le Creuset Dutch oven and a French oval oven for more than 30 years. Both have seen frequent use and are still going strong - looking great! The enameled cast-iron ensures even browning of ingredients and is very easy to clean. I like to start a dish on top of the stove, browning ingredients, etc. and then putting it into the oven for the actual cooking. I feel it's one item no one's kitchen should be without. Hence I gave one to my daughter for an anniversary some years back and now ordered one for my son and his wife for their tenth anniversary!

I am ecstatic with the results I get using this French oven. It looks great, cooks evenly, and cleans up VERY easily. Tonight I made braised short ribs in red wine, and it was great. I had never tried cooking short ribs before, but having this oven is giving me the courage to be much more adventurous with my cooking. I have made "no knead" bread in the oven, and it was yeasty and delicious.

After reading lots and lots of reviews of different brands of dutch ovens... I finally broke down and bought the Le Creuset... selling point for me was quality, and it has delivered. Its been used about a dozen times since, and every meal has been fantastic... It hand washes easily and the finish looks like it did when it came out of the box. This has already become the most heavily used pot/pan in our kitchen.

I ordered the Le Creuset for my wife for Christmas. It arrived in plenty of time for me to wrap it and put it under the Christmas tree.
Unfortunately when she unwrapped the box and took out the French Oven it had a big crack in the side. I must say the person who packed the oven did a miserable job.
It was easy to go on line and order another one, get a return form, and try again.
The second oven came through in fine condition even though it too was miserably packed.
My wife loves the Le Creuset French Oven, using several times a week since.

5.0 out of 5 stars rostiera soddisfacente
Reviewed in Italy on January 2, 2017
Verified Purchase
la rostiera Le Creuset ha una prestazione soddisfacente, è esteticamente gradevole, ha una misura (ovale da 29 cm) adatta ai piccoli forni delle cucine sovraffollate in cui ci tocca cucinare ... anche sul fuoco del fornello rende bene. Non attacca se la si usa con criterio ed è di facile pulizia. Molto gradevole anche da portare in tavola. Abbiamo cucinato nella rostiera fra l'altro anche il cappone ripieno a Natale con soddisfazione estetica e gustativa ...

Product arrived very poorly packaged. This item was required to be gift wrapped as a engagement pressy and because of the packaging the wrapping had to be removed and redone ourselves. The product itself was ok, but it was a Le Creuset cast iron casserole dish and pretty hard to damage anyway!!! Just as well it wasn't a delicate item.......
