Care Instructions
Before First Use
Enjoy unboxing your new purchase (make sure to remove the labels and packaging)
Wash your Le Creuset product in warm, soapy water; then rinse and dry thoroughly
How to Cook with your Casserole
Always use oven gloves when handling anything hot
We recommend using Le Creuset Silicone Tools or wooden/heat-resistant plastic tools. Metal utensils may be used with care, but they should not be used harshly or scraped over the cooking surface as this may cause damage
Use the casserole on the most appropriately sized hob ring — it’ll make your food cook more evenly and reduce the risk of damage to the handles and sides. This is especially important on induction hobs: if you use the wrong-sized ring, there’s a risk the hob won't ‘recognise’ the product
Cooking on medium or low heat gets the best results — even for frying and searing. Let the casserole heat up gradually for great-tasting food that’s cooked evenly. If you do need to use a higher heat, lower the setting once the desired heat has been reached
Never slide the casserole on any glass-topped hob/stove top, as this may cause damage to the casserole’s base and the glass. Instead, always lift the casserole on and off, or across the surface
How to Clean your Casserole
Wait for your casserole to cool down before you start cleaning it
For stubborn food residue, soak for 15-20 minutes before washing to easily remove leftovers and stuck-on particles
Don't use abrasive cleaning agents, metal scourers, or very stiff cleaning pads or brushes on any of the surfaces
We recommend using the Le Creuset Pots & Pans Cleaner to care for your Le Creuset enamelled cast iron cookware
Dry thoroughly after washing and store in a dry plac
