Outdoor cooking Dutch oven for desserts and sauces, designed to sit on or elevate the pot above embers, hot coals or open fire, providing stability and essential airflow. The optional feet prevent the heat from being stifled and help prevent the food inside from burning. The lid can be used as a pan, or an opening for a thermometer.
- A companion for all outdoor adventures, from camping to barbecuing in the garden. An all-rounder for every culinary challenge. Whether you want to roast, braise, cook or bake. You can use it to create both savoury and sweet dishes such as roasts, stews, soups, casseroles and cakes.
- Use the lid as a pan or grill plate - the flat shape and sturdy feet make it all possible. The raised edge holds coal and briquettes securely in place, ideal for top heat.
- With homogeneous wall thicknesses and precisely treated edges, it ensure optimum even heat distribution and storage, so your food cooks evenly. Robust and durable cast iron that will last for generations.
- Thanks to the factory-baked pre-seasoned surface, the Dutch oven is ready for use immediately after purchase, no need for tedious first time seasoning baking. Its fine-pored surface ensures a natural and strong non-stick effect so that your food hardly burns or sticks.
- The legendary Dutch oven can be used in the fire, over the fire, in the oven, on the grill and on all types of indoor or outdoor kitchen stoves.
Seasoning iron cookware involves creating a protective coating by heating incredible thin layers of fat that bonds to the metal surface in a process called polymerization to give a hard, blackened skin.
To season your cast iron cooking utensil,
- Wash well with soap and completely dry the cookware.
- Rub the entire surface with a thin layer of fat and buff thoroughly.
- Place the oil coated cookware in an oven preheated to 230°C/ 450°F for 30 minutes OR heat on the stove until it starts to smoke.
- Leave to cool and repeat.
*You may carry out the oiling and baking of the cast iron ware one to six times, with each repeated procedure rendering the cookware surface further naturally nonstick and providing a longer lasting anti rust treatment.
Points to note:
If the coating turns greasy, you may have applied a too thick layer of fat or you did not heat the cookware up to an adequately high temperature.
Do not apply excess fat and buff very well so that the cookware does not look greasy before applying heat, even the smallest amount of excess oil may pool during heating to form hardened or sticky droplets on your cooking surface.
An oven provides more uniform heat, but a stove works just fine. Keep your kitchen well ventilated, it may get a little smoky. You can heat up the greased cookware on an outdoor open fire.
You may use any type of unsaturated or saturated fats.
You only need to season your cast iron cookware once, before cooking in it for the first time.
Hand wash, dry thoroughly and apply a thin layer of oil after use.
