Dutch Oven Le Creuset Signature in Red Cast Iron 26cm 4.1L with Lid

Cast iron pot with even heating and lid

The Le Creuset Signature Dutch Oven combines a round cast iron body, a domed lid and a 4.1-liter capacity. Its curved sides support the preparation of stews, soups, broths, sauces and slow-cooked recipes, helping liquids circulate well during cooking.

In this red version with a Black Satin interior, the piece moves from stovetop to oven and can also go to the table for serving. The side handles help with moving the pot once heated, always with proper thermal protection.

Cast iron with enamel inside and out

Cast iron is known for heat retention and steady temperature distribution throughout cooking. This is useful for recipes that benefit from more stable cooking, slow sauce reduction and longer heat retention after the piece is removed from the heat source.

The Black Satin interior is designed for the culinary use of the piece, while the red exterior defines this version of the line. The lid helps retain steam and liquids during cooking, which is especially useful for longer preparations and dishes that benefit from added moisture.

Compatible with different heat sources

This pot is compatible with induction, gas, electric, ceramic, radiant, grill and oven heat sources. That versatility supports everyday use and allows you to prepare, finish and serve in the same piece, depending on the recipe.

The low, wide shape combined with the lid creates a practical cooking area for sautéing, reducing liquids, cooking rice, preparing meats with sauce and oven recipes that benefit from the consistent heat of cast iron.
