Editorial Review:

Making the perfect sauce has never been easier! Le Creuset's cast iron 3-qt. Saucier Pan has a wide, shallow design and curved side edges to make stirring efficient, so that any sauce will cook evenly and at the pace you dictate - a quicker boil for reducing volume or a slow gentle simmer to cook ingredients thoroughly. Oven-safe to 450 degrees F.Since 1925, artisans at Le Creuset have been making richly enameled cast iron cookware in the French village of Fresnoy-le-Grand. Each piece from their line is individually created, coated, fired and inspected in order to bring you the finest quality cookware-to-tableware available. The cast iron construction is superior to other cookware because it absorbs and retains heat more efficiently as your pot roast, chicken, and vegetables slowly braise and stew in the oven.

Made of brightly enameled cast iron, the Le Creuset saucier pan is perfect for slowly simmering sauces or quickly reducing a broth. Cast iron retains and distributes heat evenly, making this round pot with its tight-fitting lid and non-abrasive bottom also an excellent choice for braising, simmering, browning, or poaching on any type of stovetop burner. And, because the black phenolic lid knob is oven-safe to 400 degrees, the pot and lid can be used to bake a casserole whose cheesy crust can be browned under the broiler with the lid removed. You can also use the enameled pot for marinating meats and storing leftovers in the refrigerator.

The interior portion of the saucier measures approximately 8-1/2 inches across and 3 inches deep, holding up to 3 quarts. A helper handle opposite the long loop handle aids in lifting and carrying. Le Creuset is known for suffusing the exterior of its products with bright, modern colors, while keeping a more neutral tone on the interior to showcase the cuisine. The enamel interior resists cracking and staining and is best cared for when the contents are stirred with nylon, wood, or silicone utensils. It's also so smooth that food particles tend not to stick, making cleaning by hand or in the dishwasher a snap. Made in France, the Le Creuset saucier is guaranteed to be free of defects for the lifetime of the original owner, whether self-purchased or received as a gift. --Ann Bieri
