How to use

Preheat the pot gradually on the stovetop to avoid thermal shock. Use moderate heat on induction or gas for most recipes and increase briefly for searing if required. Add oils or fats to prevent sticking when sautéing, then proceed with liquids for braising or stewing. When transferring to the oven, use oven mitts and place the pot on a stable rack; the cast iron will maintain temperature for even cooking. After use, allow the pot to cool before cleaning according to cast iron care instructions.

Usage recommendations

To extend the life and performance of the cast iron pot, dry thoroughly after washing and apply a light layer of cooking oil to the interior surface. Avoid sudden temperature changes, and use wooden or silicone utensils to protect the cooking surface. For best results in slow-cooked dishes, brown ingredients first on medium-high heat, then reduce to low and cook covered until tender.
