Lodge Enamel Dutch Oven Review

This dutch oven is simply great. It's hefty, beautiful, and cooks like a dream. The handle is really neat, too. The quality of the pan is top-notch. It cooks well and cleans up with ease. (...)

The pan does appear to be made in China to Lodge's specifications. It's clearly a Lodge pan with their name engraved on the handles. It doesn't bother me in the least, but if that's something that bothers you than best of luck.

For me, I have found a pan that's going to be in my kitchen for the rest of my life.

Calypso Basics 5 Quart powder coated Colander, Lime Review

We have owned this colander for several years - it's quite sturdy and does the job. It's pretty large but you can hang it on a ceiling pot rack. However, the one complaint is that the drainage holes are placed in such a way that it drains slowly, especially when you're cooking pasta or something else which covers the bottom holes. There just isn't enough drainage to get the water out quickly. We're looking at one of the Oxo models as a replacement.

Calypso Basics 1.5 Quart powder coated Colander, White Review

This petite colander is perfect for small jobs and is easy to tuck away for storage, although it's so pretty that you might want to leave it out!

I use it to drain the noodles from a box of mac & cheese, rinse a bunch of grapes, or drain a small portion of steamed vegetables.

It's very well-made and sturdy.I love it!

Heuck 33028 Porcelain Enamel Cast Iron 10.5 Inch Chicken Fryer, Blue Review

Heuck deserves lauding praises not only for the very affordable price at which amazon lists this skillet, but also for the impeccable attention to detail in their manufacture of their proven cookware. Heuck stands up to the same quality, or is, as in this case, better than Le Creuset, Calphalon, etc. Enamel Cast Iron products have been around since the Industrial Revolution because of their wide versatility ("from the fire, to the fridge, to the freezer, and back to the fire"), extremely durability, and for being such a pleasure to use. Its porcelain enamel surface is inert - does not react chemically with any food, nor at any temperature. This skillet proves its worthiness with sautéing, frying, making stews and soups, brazing or slow roasting large cuts of meat, and even for baking such goodies as cornbread and coffee cake. Product ships with instructions on how best to clean and care for skillet and its different surfaces. However, it is further recommended that, if there are cooked-on food stains and particles, let soak for at least an hour in warm water, and hand clean this product with only the mildest dishwashing liquid and dishcloth or mildly abrasive sponge, but NOT in the dishwasher. The heat/water cycles of the appliance tend to eventually wear the shine of the enamel, making it opaque and diminishing the enamel's heat retention. As with any heavy cookware, such as Pyrex (another excellent product), one must also take care not to chip or break the porcelain enamel coating on the cast iron. This color choice is a deep Persian blue (not cobalt on the exterior), and is very beautiful with ivory white in the interior. You will receive many years of great use and pleasure of this product. Happy cooking!

Emeril Enameled Cast Iron 4-Quart Jambalaya Pan with Lid Review

This is a fantastic pan that I am falling madly in love with. The color is awesome- a pristine sapphire blue that looks great on the table. I used it to cook a paella and it turned out great. I found the lid useful for the paella to keep moisture it. I can't wait to try more recipes, and even use it to for baked pasta style recipes. It heats up evenly- I would say the interior of the pan is 14.5 inches, and I used it on my 8 or 9 inch stove top. All food was cooked equally with adequate stirring. Clean up was a breeze- like my other enameled cast iron pan the white enamel darkens, but I view that as a badge of honor of all the great things I have cooked. It is on the heavy side, (18 pounds) but that is why my husband is assigned cleaning duties.

I have heard cast iron should not be used at too high of a temp- I used this one slightly over medium high heat and it cooked efficiently.

Emeril has a bunch of recipes on the food network to use with this pan.

Enjoy and happy cooking.

Le Creuset Enamel-on-Steel 6-Quart Covered Stockpots Review

I bought this pot to replace a beloved enameled cookpotthat had seen better days. My old pot was cheap, but saw daily use for eight years. I was looking for something colorful and solidly made that didn't weigh a ton. It needed to be "friendly" enough to handle daily, and be nice enough to leave on the cooktop. This stockpot is fantastic. The happy color and the weight is just right--it really is a beauty. Everything-soup, pasta, rice-has turned out famously in this pot. Clean up is a snap; even stuck on pasta comes right off after a 5 minute soak. On one occasion, some soup stock became burned onto the outside and underside if the pot and it cleaned right off with a gentle scrubbing using anon-abrasive scrub sponge. The higher profile helps prevent boil-overs and is roomy without being a monster. In addition, it looks great left out on the cooktop!

I noticed some reviewers were disappointed to see the origin of the pot, but I don't think the qualityhas been compromised. I have never used or owned a French made Le Creuset product because the price has always been out of my reach, so perhaps there are quality nuances that I am unfamiliar with. I am happy to be able to have such a fine cookpot at a price I could manage, and look forward to many years and many meals with mycheerynew stockpot.

Product Description:
A useful addition to any busy kitchen, this covered stock pot measures approximately 9 by 12 by 10 inches and holds up to 6 quarts at a time. Use it for making lentil soup, vegetarian chili, homemade marinara sauce, and much more--it's the perfect size for serving up to four people. Constructed of heavy-gauge carbon steel and double coated with hard, bright enamel, the stockpot coordinates with Le Creuset's famed enameled cast-iron cookware in the French manufacturer's handsome colors, and it's as welcome in the dining room as a serving vessel as it is in the kitchen on the stovetop (safe to use with all cook-top types, including induction). The stockpot features a steel rim to prevent chipping, a secure-fitting lid to help trap heat and moisture, a stay-cool lid knob, and two side loop handles for secure transport (use oven mitts when hot). The stockpot should not be used in the oven, microwave, or dishwasher. To clean, simply wash the interior and exterior of the stockpot by hand with soap and water and dry thoroughly. The cookware carries a 101-year limited warranty.
