The Le Creuset Essential Shallow Casserole pairs a 30 cm diameter with a 3.7 L capacity. Its low profile provides a broad surface for recipes that benefit from greater contact with the pan, while the rounded sides help you move ingredients around as they cook.
A ceramic nonstick coating and glass lid complete the piece. Suited to sautéing, grilling and everyday cooking, it brings together a wide cooking area and a surface designed for convenient use and cleaning.
The shape is central to how this casserole works: rather than relying on depth, it offers room to spread ingredients across the cooking surface. The low sides and rounded interior support the movement involved in sautéed dishes, making the format particularly relevant when surface contact matters to the preparation.
With its 30 cm diameter and shallow proportions, this is a casserole to choose for its cooking area as well as its capacity.
The casserole has a ceramic nonstick coating and is compatible with gas, electric, ceramic and induction cooktops. It can also be used with a grill and in the oven, giving it a place in different cooking routines without limiting it to one type of cooktop.
The maximum oven temperature is 280°C. Keep this limit in mind when choosing an oven setting: oven compatibility does not mean the pan should be exposed to temperatures above that maximum.
For stovetop cooking, heat the casserole over low or medium heat to help preserve the performance of the coating. Avoid leaving it empty over heat for extended periods.
These care recommendations apply alongside its broad heat-source compatibility. Whether cooking on induction, gas, electric or ceramic, low or medium heat and attention to an empty pan remain part of the recommended routine.
The casserole combines a 30 cm diameter with a capacity of 3.7 L. Review both measurements when choosing the piece: the diameter describes its width across the cooking format, while capacity describes the volume it holds.
The glass lid is included with the casserole. Its ceramic nonstick cooking surface, shallow shape and rounded sides are the key features of this Essential model.
The casserole is dishwasher safe, but hand washing helps preserve the coating for longer. Use warm water, mild dishwashing detergent and a non-abrasive sponge. This is the recommended approach when caring for the ceramic nonstick surface after everyday cooking.
Allow the pan to cool before washing it. Avoid thermal shock rather than moving directly from cooking to cleaning while the casserole is still hot. Letting it cool is part of the care routine, whether you intend to wash it by hand or use the dishwasher.
Do not use sharp utensils directly on the cooking surface. Avoid knocks or impacts inside the pan that could damage the finish. Care during cooking matters as much as the cleaning method you choose afterward.
For ongoing care, keep the same basic routine: low or medium heat, no prolonged heating while empty, cooling before washing and non-abrasive cleaning.
