Le Creuset's enameled cast iron braiser, in the gorgeous new artichoke color. is designed to transform touch cuts of meat and hearty vegetables into tender, flavorful dishes. A wide base allows ingredients to be placed in a single layer for searing without crowding over high heat and when liquid is added, the domed lid continuously circulates steam to lock in moisture and flavor. Wide loop handles offer a safe and comfortable grip for transport from cooktop to oven to table.
