Named after the French word for night, the inky blue enamel that coats this sauteuse oven is unique to Crate & Barrel. The wide-bottomed cast iron pan is perfectly proportioned for preparing one-pot meals. Ideal for braising, baking and simmering, the enameled pan boasts a non-reactive interior that resists stains, prevents sticking and encourages caramelization. Strong handles provide a sturdy grip as you transfer the lidded pot from stovetop to oven to table.
Revered by both professional chefs and home cooks since its 1925 debut, Le Creuset's classic French cookware is prized for its utilitarian beauty and unsurpassed heat retention.
