Our take on the Le Creuset Oval Enamel Cast Iron Dutch Oven 5 Qt

A 5-quart oval enameled cast iron Dutch oven from Le Creuset, the benchmark brand for this cookware. The oval shape fits whole chickens, roasts and long cuts that a round pot can't, and the enameled cast iron holds and spreads heat evenly on gas, electric and induction. It is oven safe to 500°F and doubles as a serving piece. Against round pots it trades some stovetop footprint for roasting room; against cheaper enameled cast iron it is heavier and costlier, but owners report decades of use.
