Customer Reviews of Lodge Enameled Cast-Iron 3-Quart Dutch Oven, Caribbean Blue
Customer Rating: Summary: Great Dutch oven and Looks great too! Comment: We have been on the look out for a 3 quart Dutch oven every since the glass casserole dish lost its battle with the floor. This is a perfect size for us and I guarantee this one will out last Me. It bake Mac and Cheese perfectly and looks great on the table to serve from. It would make a great walnut cracker as well. Customer Rating: Summary: Love it! Comment: I absolutely love this dutch oven. It is the perfect size for spaghetti sauce or macaroni and cheese. This is my first piece of enameled cast iron and I am hooked. I have many Calphalon Commercial items, but think I will build on these enameled cast iron pieces. They are heavy and hold the heat well. Finally, I have a piece of cookwear where sauces simmer, not boil or burn. And although they are not non-stick, they clean up amazingly easily. The handles will get hot so you need to be careful, but that is what happens with all cast iron, so I don't consider it a problem. Use pot holders! I also love that it can go from the stove top to the oven. I highly recommend this item. Customer Rating: Summary: Solid and well made. Comment: Newly arrived, and appears solid and well made. Similar build quality to Le Creuset. Works with induction, including Viking Portable Electric Induction Cooker 15x12-in.. (The Le Creuset sets do not with with the VIking cooktop.) Customer Rating: Summary: Great Dutch Oven Comment: Love this dutch oven! Great size, love the color & cleanup is a breeze. Very happy with it & purchased through Amazon at a great price. Customer Rating: Summary: Dutch Oven Comment: I like to cook occasionally because I really enjoy it. Many of the recipes I use require some preparation on top of the stove followed by completion in the oven. There are only two of us, and our stainless steel brazing pan is often too large. This 3 quart pan is just the right size for many of our meals. The cast iron distributes the heat evenly, the enamel coating makes it easy for cooking and cleaning, and the blue enamel exterior makes this an attractive dish from which to serve. When recipes call for use of a crock pot, I use this dutch oven because I have more temperature control, and if I need to bring things to a boil during the cooking process it is easy to do. The pan narrows down a little at the bottom which makes it ideal for use on the small burner, and the cast iron quickly distributes the heat throughout. This Dutch oven has become my most used stove top pan after my 10 inch skillet. After all these accolades why only four stars? Because it is heavy, and that is of course what makes it what it is, but my wife finds it too heavy to handle comfortably. More Reviews Lodge Color Porcelain Enamel on Cast Iron cookware can be used on gas, electric, ceramic, and induction cooktops, as well as in the oven. The knob is oven save to 400 degrees. Lifetime Warranty. This Dutch Oven with Lid measures 9. 75 inches in diameter and 3 inches in depth. Choosing Appliance -> Do I need a dishwasher? If you enjoy washing by hand, no! However modern machines use less water, detergent and power than ever before and wash hotter using really powerful cleaners giving a hygienic wash result. You can save around 500 hours a year so it is worth thinking about. If you have a small kitchen or live alone, choose a slimline model. Choosing Appliance -> Knives The importance of high quality knives can't be stressed enough! Buy the best you can and expect to spend some serious money. It is better to buy a couple of excellent knives and slowly add to your collection rather than buying an entire set of low quality knives. Start with a chef knife and paring knife. You will also want to buy a sharpening steel. Lodge Enameled Cast-Iron 3-Quart Dutch Oven, Caribbean Blue Useful info -> Tips If you plan to install a dishwasher, place it close to the sink. Where you choose to put it might depend on whether you're right- or left-handed and on the path dishes are likely to take when cleared from the table. Also consider the choreography of two people loading and unloading the machine |
