amazon basics 6 Quart Enameled Cast Iron Covered Round Dutch Oven

Features & Benefits

Made with quality vitreous enamel
This cookware is coated with a vitreous, enamel finish so it can be used to marinate, cook, and store food.

Cooking Surfaces

Enamel Cast Iron cookware can be used on all cooking surfaces including on a stovetop, in the oven, under the broiler, and on the barbecue. When using cast iron cookware on ceramic or glass topped cooking surfaces, avoid dragging the cookware across the surface as this can cause damage to the cooking surface. Always lift the cookware while moving on these types of surfaces.

Product Information

Oven safe up to 500 °F (260 °C).
For best results cook using low to medium heat. Always add water or oil when heating.
Use vegetable oil or cooking spray for better cooking and easier cleaning.
It is recommended to use heat-resistant protective wear when handling hot dishes and to protect surfaces from hot cookware.
Remove all labels before first use.
Hand wash each piece in warm, soapy water.
Rinse and thoroughly hand dry to avoid rusting.
NEVER place cast iron cookware in the dishwasher. Citrus-based cleaners should not be used, as they can dull the exterior gloss.
If necessary, use non-abrasive pads or scrapers to remove food residue; metal pads or utensils will scratch or chip porcelain.
With regular use and care, a slight amount of permanent staining is to be expected with enameled cookware and does not affect performance.

Caution

If you are new to cooking with cast iron cookware the following will prove helpful:
Always pre-heat cast iron cookware over low to medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes before adding oils or other liquids.
Never leave pans unattended during preheating.
Always select the burner that most closely matches the size of the bottom of the pan.
Do not use burners or heating elements that are larger than the bottom of the cookware.
Do not allow handles to extend over other lit burners or the edge of the range.
Always use hot-pads, oven mitts, or potholders while moving or removing cast iron cookware on or from the stove or oven.
Always place hot pans on a heat resistant surface such as a trivet or cooling rack.
Never place cast iron cookware in the microwave.
Always allow hot cookware to cool to room temperature before immersing in water.
Never place hot cookware in water, placing hot pans in water can cause serious personal injury and damage to your cookware.
Your product may chip or break if it falls onto a hard surface.
You can place your item in the oven (with the exception of utensils with wooden or bakelite handles).
It is possible that knobs and handles may become unscrewed with use. Check from time to time and retighten screws if necessary.
Use silicone, plastic or wooden utensils. Metal utensils can harm your product’s enamel.
Maintenance: when you accidentally drop or crack the enamel coating off, you will need to protect the area every time it gets wet. Simply rub a little vegetable oil over the cracked or chipped area. Wipe away any excess oil with a paper towel.
You should never cook tomatoes and other acidic foods in cast iron.
The high acidity of these foods will strip the seasoning and result in discoloration and metallic-tasting food.

Disposal
Dispose of the product according to local regulations. If in doubt, consult your local authorities.
