Le Creuset 3.5L Braiser, Artichaut
ITEM#: 21180030795031
Product Overview
Le Creuset’s Artichaut 3.5 Litre Braiser is the ideal piece of cookware for creating tender, flavourful dishes with ease. Designed specifically for braising, this versatile pot allows you to first sear meat and vegetables at higher temperatures before slowly cooking them in aromatic liquid. The shallow base and domed lid create the perfect environment for this cooking method by locking in heat and moisture throughout the cooking process.
Built from Le Creuset’s signature enamelled cast iron, the Braiser delivers exceptional heat retention and even heat distribution for consistent cooking results. The chip-resistant enamel interior and exterior are made for long-lasting durability, while the wide base gives ingredients more contact with the cooking surface for better browning and caramelization. This combination helps develop deeper flavour while maintaining the tenderness of slow-cooked meals.
The Braiser’s shallow design exposes ingredients to both dry and moist heat, ensuring food braises properly instead of steaming. Its 3.5 litre capacity is ideal for preparing meals for smaller households while still offering enough space for a variety of recipes. From fall-off-the-bone ribs to braised fish and roasted vegetables, this beginner-friendly piece offers versatility for both everyday cooking and special occasions.
Great For:
Braised Short Ribs, Braised Chicken, Roasted Vegetables, Seafood, One-Pan Meals
Care & Use:
- Suitable for all cooktops, including induction
- Oven safe for high-temperature cooking
- Dishwasher safe (handwashing recommended)
- Chip-resistant enamel interior and exterior
FAQ's:
