What sets the Signature Le Creuset multifunction casserole apart

This elegant and sturdy Shallow Casserole will become one of your favorites. With it you will cook wonderfully, enjoyably, efficiently, and with fantastic results. Its design has everything to make you fall in love:

• Its perfect diameter. With its 28 cm is an ideal Shallow Casserole for everyday use, and also for special occasions. It features a wide base perfect for frying, sauteing, baking, browning, cooking, roasting, or griddle cooking, both small cuts of meat or fish and larger pieces. 
• Its generous depth. It is deeper than a low Shallow Casserole or a frying pan, which together with its wide base provides a 3.2 liter capacity. The high, straight walls make it perfect for frying, reducing splashes, for roasting or for cooking all kinds of brothy or saucy recipes over low heat, both on the hob and in the oven.
  
• Its wonderful vitrified cast iron construction. Like all Le Creuset cocottes, the multifunction Shallow Casserole is made of vitrified enameled cast iron. This makes it suitable for all types of stovetops (including induction), for the oven, and also for the grill or barbecue. 
• Its excellent heat performance. Precisely because it is made of cast iron, with this Shallow Casserole you will cook very efficiently, whether for frying or searing at high temperatures or for dishes that require slow cooking over low heat. Heat transmission, distribution and retention are perfect and highly efficient. Once it is hot, it keeps the temperature beautifully. 
• Its great versatility. In addition to being a perfect tool for cooking all kinds of food, with it you can prepare any recipe you can imagine: griddled meats or fish, tempura vegetables, crepes or pancakes, rice dishes on the stovetop or in the oven, stews or legume casseroles, savory pies, meatloaf, sponge cakes, brownies, brioches, pizzas, focaccias, or wonderful loaves of bread.
• Its Signature large handles. They provide a secure, firm grip, distributing the weight of the Shallow Casserole evenly. In addition, make it easy to handle and help you move it comfortably and safely from the hob to the oven or from the oven to the table, even with oven gloves on.
• Its matte black interior enamel. The black interior enamel makes cooking easier and is easier to clean and maintain. It is resistant to stains, wear and scratches.
