Le Creuset 2.25 qt. Saucier Pan - Flame

Description

A saucepan might be the most common pan in any kitchen, but the Le Creuset L2557-212 2.25 qt. Saucier Pan - Flame is not just any saucepan. It's a super-saucepan. This incredible color-saturated flame-orange pan is shallow and wide with curved sides, which makes it perfect for stirring sauces and other foods. Heavy-enameled cast iron is a customary favorite with recreational and professional cooks everywhere because the qualities of cast iron make it easy to cook foods right every time. Most importantly, it distributes heat slowly and equally, so food cooks consistently and stays warm in the pan. The lid seals tight and captures heat within the pan, on the stovetop, or in the oven, so natural flavors blend deliciously. The enamel surface resists wear, and cleanup is simple. The smooth sand-colored interior releases food easily, and no soaking or scrubbing is required. Not only that, but the bright color of Le Creuset enameled cast iron cookware adds joy to your kitchen, as well. Now do you think this is just an old saucepan like any other?

About Le Creuset of America Inc.
Le Creuset is best known for its cast iron cookware, which has been used for cooking utensils since the Middle Ages. The Le Creuset factory is at Fresnoy-Le-Grand in Northern France.




In 1925, the foundry began producing cast iron by hand-casting molten iron in sand molds - still the most delicate stage of the production process. Even today, after casting, each mold is destroyed and the cookware is polished and sanded by hand then scrutinized for imperfections. Once declared good for enameling, the items are sprayed with two separate coats of enamel and fired after each process at a temperature of 800 degrees F Celsius. The enamel then becomes extremely hard and durable, making it almost completely resistant to damage during normal use. Because much of the finishing is done by hand, each Le Creuset cast iron cookware piece is completely unique. Le Creuset is an excellent choice in cookware, and one you'll appreciate for years to come.
