Product Information

Full details

This Le Creuset 3-ply Stainless Steel Non-Stick Shallow Casserole is designed for home cooks seeking healthier, more versatile meal preparation. Its key benefit is the non-stick coating and multi-layered construction, which allows for cooking with minimal or no added fat, ensuring food releases easily. A slight caveat is that while versatile, its shallow depth may not be ideal for very large volumes of liquid-based dishes. This casserole is ideal for everyday one-pot meals, low-fat cooking, searing, and even roasting.

FAQs

What is the warranty on this casserole?

The Le Creuset 3-ply Stainless Steel cookware, including this shallow casserole, comes with a lifetime guarantee against manufacturing defects.

Can I use metal utensils with this non-stick casserole?

While the non-stick coating is durable, it is recommended to use wooden, silicone, or nylon utensils to prevent scratching and maintain the integrity of the non-stick surface for longer.

Is the lid interchangeable with other Le Creuset cookware?

Lids are typically designed to fit specific pot sizes and models. It is best to use the lid that came with this shallow casserole for a proper seal.

How do I maximize the life of the non-stick coating?

Avoid using metal utensils, do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, do not overheat an empty pan, and allow the cookware to cool before washing. Hand washing is preferred over dishwashing.

Can I use this on an induction cooktop?

Yes, the 3-ply stainless steel construction is fully compatible with all types of hobs, including induction.

What are the exact dimensions and weight?

The dimensions are approximately 37.8 x 33.3 x 10.3 cm, and the weight is 2.53 kg.

Is it safe to put this casserole in the dishwasher?

Yes, the casserole is dishwasher safe. However, hand washing is recommended to preserve the non-stick coating's performance and longevity.

Troubleshooting

Food sticking to the surface.

Ensure the pan is adequately preheated (medium heat is usually sufficient) before adding oil and food. Do not overcrowd the pan. If the non-stick coating is older, its effectiveness may diminish over time; consider replacing if significantly degraded.

Uneven cooking or hot spots.

Verify that the heat source is centered under the base of the casserole. Ensure the lid is fitted correctly to retain heat and steam. The 3-ply construction is designed for even heating, so ensure the hob is functioning properly.

Discoloration on the interior.

Mineral deposits from water or slight food residue can cause discoloration. Try a gentle cleaning solution like baking soda paste or a specialized stainless steel cleaner. Avoid using steel wool or highly abrasive cleaners.

Stuck-on food is difficult to remove.

Soak the casserole in warm, soapy water for 15-30 minutes. For stubborn residue, gently simmer water in the pot for a few minutes before attempting to clean with a soft sponge. Avoid scraping aggressively.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Promotes healthier cooking with its non-stick surface and requirement for minimal fat.
  • Even heat distribution and retention prevent hot spots and ensure consistent results.
  • Durable 3-ply stainless steel construction offers longevity and resistance to warping.
  • Versatile for various cooking methods and compatible with all hob types, including induction.
  • Easy to clean due to the non-stick coating, and is also dishwasher safe.

Cons

  • The shallow depth might be limiting for recipes requiring large amounts of liquid, such as deep soups or stews.
  • While non-stick, prolonged use of metal utensils could potentially damage the coating over time.
  • Requires specific care to maintain the non-stick properties optimally, though it is generally robust.

Care: For daily cleaning, hand wash with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or cloth. The non-stick coating allows for easy cleaning. Avoid using harsh scouring pads or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the non-stick surface. While dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended to prolong the life of the non-stick coating.
