Thanks to the Le Creuset Signature oval casserole dish, Sunday’s leg of lamb and its side dishes finally have a place of their own!
Its generous shape accommodates long cuts of meat, while its enameled cast iron ensures even cooking and keeps dishes warm until serving. Made in France, this Marseille blue casserole goes from the stovetop to the oven, then straight to the table: it’s just as happy simmering quietly as it is stealing the show as the centerpiece of the meal.
A generous size for cooking and sharing
Measuring 31 cm in diameter, with a 6.3-liter capacity and exterior dimensions of 40.4 × 25.7 × 17.9 cm, this oval cast-iron casserole can accommodate a whole leg of lamb, poultry, fish, or generous portions of vegetables.
The enameled cast iron retains heat and distributes it evenly, resulting in tender dishes that stay warm at the table. The airtight lid promotes condensation: ingredients simmer in their own juices, and flavors develop without drying out. The enamel interior makes cleaning easy and requires no seasoning.
This Le Creuset casserole dish can be used in the oven, under the broiler, and on gas, electric, glass-ceramic, or induction stovetops. It is also suitable for freezer storage, with a temperature range from −23°C to 260°C. Its Signature handle, heat-resistant up to 200°C, allows you to lift the lid—always while wearing oven mitts.
Its cooking benefits:
-
- Practicaloval shape for long cuts of meat and roasts
- Enameled cast iron for even cooking and excellent heat retention
- Airtight lid to lock in moisture during cooking
- Handles designed to make it easy to transfer the pot from the stove to the table
- Compatible with all types of stovetops, including induction
The Marseille color adds a touch of brightness to the kitchen and the table. The oval casserole serves the same everyday purposes as a round one but features a shape particularly well-suited for long, narrow foods.
Usage and Care Instructions
Before using it for the first time, wash the casserole dish with hot, soapy water and dry it thoroughly. Heat it gradually over low to medium heat on a burner appropriate for its size. Preferably use utensils made of wood, silicone, or heat-resistant plastic. Let it cool before washing; for stubborn residue, soak it for 15 to 20 minutes in lukewarm soapy water.
