So I am in the market for a ducth oven and after looking up things I came across America's test kitchen's post and to no surprise Le Creuset was the top choice

that however is a little out of my price range so when I saw their "best buy" I thought I would pull the trigger on that however searching their site it only shows 2 colors, and when looking for this item on amazon there is multiple items listed from a 3rd party seller for 40 dollars less than the one sold by amazon but Im curious are these counterfeit dutch ovens? I know that there are discontinued colors but i cannot find info on this anywhere online.

This is the link Shipped and Sold by Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-CI670-30CR-Enameled-Casserole-Cardinal/dp/B0017HRLFC?th=1

and this is the other one listed on the same page but instead of Cardinal Red it is listed as Venice Red and is only 89.99 instead of 129.95: https://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-CI670-30CR-Enameled-Casserole-Cardinal/dp/B0CG78WXZD?th=1

Personally I really like the color of the Grey/Lilac one also listed on the same page from the same seller for 89.99: https://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-CI670-30CR-Enameled-Casserole-Cardinal/dp/B0CG7FNLXG?th=1

Cheers.

If the wear on the bottom can come out with baking soda, okay… But what about the chips in the enamel along the rim? Thank you!

I recently got a Dutch oven called Cocinaware, and it’s an enamel cast-iron Dutch oven. On the label it says it’s ceramic and multi purpose, it also says that it can be heated up to 400degrees Fahrenheit. The recipe that I am currently using says to heat it up at 450 so I’m a little worried. Is the temperature marking a hard guideline or a suggestion? Thanks for reading :)

First time this season. Cooking in the garden

I'm planning to buy a 4qt Lodge Dutch oven and using it on an upcoming camping trip. I've never used one bore, but I have used ct iron skillets soninam at let familiar with cast iron cooling.

What do you guys like to make at the campfire that doesn't require a ton of ingredients and prepping?

Desert recipes are also welcome.

A truly one pot wonder

Brand new set i purchased for myself! Nobody i know understands lol. Im so excited! What shall I cook first? 😁

So I got this Martha Stewart cast iron pot a few years ago and long story short I washed it (I know bad, I’m lazy) with rinse aid and it came out looking like this, all the shine is gone and when I try to wipe it with a wet paper towel some of the color rubs off. Is this salvageable or should I just consider it ruined?

Hi all, I've been cooking with this Lodge dutch oven for years. Gotten rid of all kinds of stains with all kinds of solutions. I'm stumped. This is on my lid after making chicken/orzo, a dish I've made 50x without an issue.

The lid is tough cause you can't boil anything in it like you would with the pot to get off the really tough stains.

HELP!

Hi, I'm very new to dutch oven cooking, I just got my dutch oven a couple of weeks ago and have cooked in it about 3 times. After I cleaned it the last time I noticed some marks on the bottom. Since the instructions said that a patina might appear with use and that I shouldn't scrub that of, I just left it alone. But I'm not sure if this is a patina or any food residue (although it seems flat, so it doesn't seem like food stuck to it) or if there's something wrong with my dutch oven. The marks seem more matte and whiter than the other parts of the bottom. I have only washed it by hand with usual dishwashing soap and water. Is it normal to get such a patima after the 3rd use? Should I do something with it? Does it need oil or anything? I read a lot and everywhere seems to say that enameled DO should be fine without any special care just washing as normal. Please help. Thanks

My mom gave me this pot and she forgot where she got it. It looks like a Dutch oven, but I'm not sure. I want to make bread, but I'm afraid of the off chance that I'm wrong to put it in the oven. There's a product number on it, so I looked it up but I can't find much information on it. I did find it on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.in/Bergner-Aluminium-Ceramic-Coating-Casserole/dp/B00BKN4NWW and it says it's oven safe. But it's the only website where I've found it sold where it says it's oven safe. All of the other websites I've found it sold on don't specify if it's oven safe or not.

Just got a Dutch oven after wanting one for so long. Very happy with my first recipe.

Is this Dutch oven still safe to use? Or is it too far gone?

Like the title says. For the next few months I won't have a working oven and it's hard to find Dutch Oven recipes that don't use an oven at some point. Especially to roast chicken thighs!

Any recipe suggestions? Recipe book recommendations? (I have Cook it in Your Dutch Oven)

Thank you!
