The primary use of a Dutch oven is to slowly braise or simmer. The ability of the Dutch oven to evenly distribute heat makes it perfect for tenderizing any cut of meat for stews or heavy cassoulets. This "Chasseur" cookware line has been enameled twice. The first coat is for protecting the edges against corrosion and is a primer for the color. The second layer adds durability and color so that it keeps its appearance and is easy to clean. Lid knobs are heat resistant up to 400°F. These ovens are compatible with standard stovetops, induction ranges, and convection ovens. All dimensions are interior and do not include handles or thickness of the material.
