Round Dutch Oven Le Creuset Signature 18 cm Cast Iron Flint

The Le Creuset Signature Round Dutch Oven (18 cm) combines cast iron with an enamel interior for recipes that call for steady heat and even cooking. With a 1.8 L capacity, it is a compact piece for everyday dishes—sauces, vegetables, rice, soups—and small portions served straight to the table.

The well-fitting lid helps retain heat and moisture during cooking, while the side handles make it easier to move between stovetop, oven and counter. The Flint finish is a subdued tone that blends with different kitchen and table styles.

Stable heat for varied cooking

Cast iron is valued for its ability to retain and distribute heat evenly. In practice, it favors slow cooking, sautés, stews, broths and oven bakes, with steadier temperature throughout the recipe.

Lid and handles designed for handling

The lid promotes internal circulation of heat and moisture, important in recipes that call for more controlled cooking. The wide side handles help with a firmer grip when moving the piece.

From cooking to serving

Beyond stovetop and oven use, the Dutch oven also works well at the table. Its round shape and enamel finish make it suitable for smaller meals and straightforward presentations without transferring to another dish.
