This 4.5-Quart enamel Dutch oven is a versatile kitchen essential, perfect for cooking, marinating, refrigeration, and freezing. The color porcelain enamel on cast iron can be used on various cooktops, including gas, electric, ceramic, and induction, as well as in the oven. However, it is not recommended for use on outdoor grills or over open outdoor flames, and it is not suitable for microwaves.
The Lodge Color Porcelain Enamel on Cast Iron cookware is cast from molten iron in individual sand molds. The porcelain surface eliminates the need to season cast iron, and the cast iron vessel boasts superior heat distribution and retention, evenly heating the bottom, sidewalls, and even the lid. The tightly fitting lid seals in moisture, and the excellent heat retention reduces the amount of energy needed for cooking.
The cookware features two layers of very hard, glossy porcelain enamel that are chip-resistant and easy to clean. The stainless steel lid knob is oven-safe up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit, and the black rim on the pot is matte porcelain, not exposed cast iron. The hygienic porcelain enamel is non-reactive with food, and while dishwasher-safe, hand washing with warm soapy water is recommended to preserve the cookware's original appearance.
This Dutch oven is a flawless pairing of form and function, making it a go-to choice for preparing and serving memorable meals. It can be used for a variety of cooking methods, including broiling, braising, baking, and roasting, all up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit.
The porcelain enamel on cast iron is a result of a process where a particulate of glass, called frit, is applied to the cast iron vessel and then baked at high temperatures between 1200 and 1400°F. This fusing of the glass frit to the cast iron creates a bond that is heat-tolerant and impervious to water and other consumables.
The smooth porcelain-enameled interior minimizes sticking, promotes caramelization, and resists staining. Although enameled cast iron is dishwasher-safe, hand washing with warm soapy water and a nylon scrub brush is recommended to maintain the Dutch oven's optimal condition.
Lodge is a family-owned business that was founded in 1896 and is still owned by the same family today. The company is committed to environmental responsibility and community development, with a focus on producing high-quality products made with non-toxic, PFOA and PTFE-free materials.
