Introducing the Chasseur 26cm Round French Oven, a high-quality piece of cookware made in France. Each piece of Chasseur Cast Iron Cookware is unique, as they are hand cast in individual sand moulds which are destroyed after each use. This manual enamelling process ensures that the trademark Chasseur colored enamel is skillfully applied by trained experts. The optimal gauge on all pieces promotes unsurpassed heat distribution and retention, with no hot spots. In addition, Chasseur is committed to being environmentally friendly, using up to 80% recycled material and being 100% recyclable. This French oven is suitable for all heat sources, including induction, and is beautiful enough to be used from the stove top or oven straight to the table top. The heavy lid with unique concentric rings creates a self-basting effect, keeping your food tender and moist while retaining the flavor. With an oven-safe capacity of 5L and a temperature range of 220°C to 250°C, this French oven is versatile and durable. When it comes to use and care, it is important to use low to medium heat and avoid using the high heat setting or the booster setting on induction stoves. Avoid routinely putting the cookware in the dishwasher, as it can tarnish and damage the enamel. It is also advised to avoid drops and knocks, as well as using metal scrapers or utensils that can damage the enamel. After washing, dry the cookware completely before storing it away to prevent rust. For cookware with black matte enamel, white spots may appear, but they can be addressed by following the same instructions for drying and applying a layer of oil. Overall, the Chasseur 26cm Round French Oven is a reliable and versatile addition to any kitchen.
