Always start out with a larger pot than what you think you need – Julia Child
Indeed, so may we suggest the nine quart round French oven by Le Creuset, perfect for a Boeuf Bourguignon or Coq Au Vin Julia Child would be happy to indulge in. And indulge is an apt term when considering Le Creuset, the world’s finest cast iron cookware.
Le Creuset: Inspired by the History
In France, where romance, luxury and etiquette surround the love of food, it is no surprise that this wildly romantic country with it’s richly steeped heritage of great cuisine and celebrated wines inspired two Belgian industrialists to create Le Creuset, the leading manufacturer of fully enameled cookwear. Founded in 1925 in Northern France, Armand Desaegher and Octave Aubecq first developed their signature round French oven, to this day Le Creuset’s most popular cookwear piece.
Le Creuset is Quality Cookware
Capturing the essence of great cooking, Le Creuset is synonymous with quality ingredients and excellent results. Chefs around the world consistently choose Le Creuset for its style and cooking performance. Le Creuset’s cookwear is unique and the innovative design sets it apart from all other brands. The pieces are beautiful and easily transferred from oven to table, then right into the dishwasher for ease of clean up leaving you more time to enjoy your dinner parties. Le Creuset also has a colorful line of place settings that coordinate perfectly with their cookwear so your table settings will always be stylish.
Le Creuset – Today’s Cookware, Tomorrows Heirloom
In every kitchen where the discovery and delight of cooking abounds, Le Creuset is a must have. After hours spent creating the perfect meal, it is important to know your cookware will bake, roast and grill your creation to perfection.
