The Henckels Oval Cast Iron Casserole is a beautiful addition to any set. Cook stews, soups or even full chicken dinners or use it to serve iced foods like shrimp and oysters. The enamel coating is non-reactive and non-stick both inside and out, so it's easy to cook with and a snap to clean. Smart designs like the hands-free tilted lid allow you to securely fasten the lid while you are adding ingredients or tasting. The cast iron construction heats evenly and thoroughly for a variety of cooking styles. Plus, the vibrant colors look great on the range - and on your table.
