Le Creuset's Enameled Cast Iron Au Gratin Pans are a must have for the smart cook. I have had a few of these for years and they always come in handy. Few materials conduct heat so well in an oven as does cast iron and the nice thing is these are porcelain enameled which gives you only the flavor of the food without any metal contamination. These cook much better than their stoneware cousins and you will be amazed at the texture of casseroles and potatoes au gratin etc when using this pan. With these pans you are only limited by your imagination.

Clean up is a snap no matter how cheesy and messy the pan may become. Just soak in warm soapy water for 15 minutes and the mess cleans up quick. If you are especially lazy, like me sometimes--just line the inside with aluminum foil.

A great addition for any cooks kitchen. These also make a great gift to give or receive.
