This is a 26 cm, 5.6 L enamelled cast iron Dutch oven built for baking bread and slow cooking. The spiked lid traps steam and drips condensation back onto the loaf, which helps produce a crisp crust and an open crumb. The heavy cast iron holds heat well and works on any hob and in the oven, with no seasoning needed. It competes with enamel-clad cast iron pots from Le Creuset and Staub, which cost far more, and with bare cast iron combo cookers that need seasoning. Owners rate it highly, though a few mention its weight and the care enamel needs.
