Le Creuset Cookware Set , 20 Piece Review

There was a bit of sticker shock involved, but the 20 piece Le Creuset cookware set has performed well so far. Easy to use, easier to clean up, and all the pieces look fabulous.

We originally bought the set for induction cooktop compatibility (since most pieces are enameled cast iron), but in truth these are great pieces no matter what type of stove one has.

Heads up - several pieces are stoneware, so those particular ones will not work on induction cooktops - they work great in the oven, though!

About Le Creuset Cookware
Prized by international chefs, Le Creuset's porcelain-enameled cast iron pieces distribute and retain heat evenly to ensure consistent cooking and serving temperature of meals. Each piece is fired at high temperatures and undergoes several hand-finishing processes to create the durable, vitreous enamel coating that is resistant to chips, scratches and cracks. Perfectly-fitted lids seal in moisture and the distinctive flavors of appetizers, entrees and desserts. Made in France.

Le Creuset stoneware dishes are fired at 2,156 degrees Fahrenheit to produce durable nonporous ovenware for even heat distribution. Easy-to-clean enameled surface is scratch- and stain-resistant and resists chipping and cracking. Will not absorb odors or flavor of foods. Casseroles bake with a deliciously crisp golden surface. Petite round casserole dishes create enticing entrees and desserts, beginning with the 25 sweet and savory recipes inside The Le Creuset Mini-Cocotte cookbook included. Made in France.

Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 3-1/2-Quart Round French Ovens Review

The single best pots for doing rich chicken dishes and the like. Conducts heat perfectly, well-balanced and very easly to clean. So many great meals have emerged from these pots that I tend to cook more frequently,especially the more slow-cooking or complex dishes.
I inheirited one ofthese pots and then bought another. Since then I have excused all similarimitations from the kitchen.
If I had to equipt my kitchen with 3cooking pots/pans, this would come right after the skillet and sauce pan.

Le Creuset 9-Piece Cookware Set Review

The cast iron pots alone deserve a 5-star review.I love them so much, I want to buy an additional complementary color set! However, I must admit that I've had these pots for over a year and haven't yet used the stockpot or the casserole dish. So, what would I do with an additional pair if I were to buy the 2nd set? Truth be told, I'm hesitant to use the stock pot because it's steel and not cast iron.I tend to be on the rougher side as far as usage goes and I'd be nonplussed if it chipped b/c I'd know not what to do. This is why the cast iron has been a treasure.So, even though I have miscellaneous pieces I've yet to venture forward with a) I'm beside myself that all these pieces match b)the cast iron can take a beating and look like new after soap&water c) the cast pieces will not ever disintegrate like lesser quality pots d)(if I'm lucky)My children could use these if I look after the pots carefully enough!
Caution:
- Try to rinse as much excess water off the pot/towel dry if possible after washing.Else, there may be early signs of rust.Nothing a rewash and a vigorous towel dry won't take care of though! After I did this, and was quite careful about excess water on my pots, no rust has threatened to return.
- Don't was in the dishwasher.I bought a Martha Stewart cast iron French oven (*not Le Creuset)and after boiling pasta threw it in the dishwasher only to find it covered - Yes, Covered - in rust that would not come off no matter how hard I tried.I only used it once and had to throw it away.Moral of the story: Don't put your cast iron pots/pans in the dishwasher!

Le Creuset Classic Enameled Cast-Iron 6-Piece Cookware Sets Review

This is by far the best cookware available. My advice, READ the manual before using if you are not familiar with the way cast iron cooks. I made the mistake of turning my burners to high heat when they function on low to medium! You will burn your food and ruin your pan if you use the high heat! Other than that (which is entirely my fault for not reading) this is so nice to have in my collection. This set is perfect to round off a cookware set.
