Consistent simmering without uneven heating makes sauces, stews and delicate dishes turn out reliably every time.

Durable, Low-Maintenance Finish – Thanks to Hardwearing Interior Enamel
Interior enamel promotes easy food release and resists staining from long cooks. Construction tolerates ovens and grills, and the enamel is described as easy to handwash and dishwasher safe.
Simple cleaning and a tough finish help the cookware stay presentable and functional with minimal upkeep.
