Tips:
  • Always preheat Le Creuset cast iron casserole thoroughly before putting in any ingredient.
  • A cast iron casserole can be transferred straight into an oven after you sear the meat over a stovetop. That makes it perfect for recipes like boeuf Bourguignon. Just turn on the oven timer and you don’t have to keep an eye on the liquid level in the pot. The casserole also comes with a heavy lid that works magic in sealing in the moisture. Even after prolonged cooking, the food is still moist and juicy.
