A Little Bit About Emile Henry Flame® cookware line

and My Experience with the 12" Oval Dutch Oven

(Pictured Above)

Manufactured in France, this versatile cookware is easy to clean and it is also dishwasher safe. Ideal for use on any type of stove or in the oven, they are also attractive serving dishes at the table. These cocottes or casseroles can be used for a variety of cooking, from cooking rice or vegetables, to making soups and casseroles, pot roasting and even baking cakes and breads. The dutch oven / stewpots are made of an innovative ceramic technology that is remarkably hard and flameproof so it can be used directly on a heat source whether it is a stovetop or grill and then can be placed in the oven to roast or bake. The dutch oven / stewpots direct heat tolerance is so high that it, unlike most metal, glass or ceramic cookware, can sit on a very hot open flame, empty, for an extended period of time and it won't crack, discolor or break. The Flame-Top Dutch Oven / Stewpot cooks evenly and gently when used on top of the stove, in the oven or even in the microwave.

Personally I love to cook, it's something that I am fairly passionate about. When it comes to putting one of my coveted recipes in a piece of cookware and trusting that it will cook to perfection, the trust  does not come easily. How thrilled was I to find Emile Henry?! This company has made it their (family) business to make excellence a priority in the cookware industry, for generations past and to come.

Versatile cookware is extremely hard to come by. My kitchen cabinets are filled with several pieces, each with it's own specific purpose.

Flame® Cookware was designed with technology that allows you to cook on the stove top (great for braising a roast before placing it in the oven), in the oven, and yes even the microwave (leftover's anyone?)! A piece of cookware this versatile had me intrigued and excited to test it out for myself! My findings?  Flame® ceramic cookware is absolutely amazing; hands down best piece of ceramic cookware I have ever owned or experienced! In my past experience, ceramic cookware can be hard to time as it doesn't always cook the same as another piece of ceramic cookware, or evenly. The Flame® Oval Dutch oven was used to cook a variety of dishes. Everything from a pasta casserole to a pot roast.......cooking evenly to perfection each and every time (no matter what the contents are). This incredible cookware has definitely earned my trust.
