Le Creuset 3.75-qt Enameled Cast Iron Cassadou w/ Glass Lid Marseille

A clear view into your cassadou? Yes, chef! Grab your apron and gear up for frying, braising, searing, or slow-simmering your most-requested recipes (or social-media sensations) with this Le Creuset 3.75-qt cast-iron cassadou — with glass lid!

Not familiar with this traditional design and its legendary past? Inspired by French hunters who transformed their daily harvest into hearty stews, this versatile vessel can be thought of as a deep saute pan or a small Dutch oven — with no need for cast-iron pre-seasoning. Modernized for today’s kitchens, the enamel interior caramelizes meat while keeping slow-cooked food from sticking to the pan (so Nonna’s minestrone, your Sunday pot roast, and Julia’s beef bourguignon turn out perfectly every time). What’s more, the glass lid allows you to monitor your masterpiece while it cooks, locking in moisture and flavor along the way.

With this gorgeous cassadou on your cooktop, elevating everything from casual weeknight dinners to more elegant (and memorable!) meals is always on the menu. From Le Creuset.
