MAGNALITE Classic 3-Quart Casserole / Dutch Oven With Lid 4066
Looking at them you will notice the absence of the long handle. They are designed for slow cooking in the oven because they diffuse and hold the heat. The lids keep steam from evaporating and the cooking is completed with moist heat. The moist heat comes from the foods themselves- the juices released from a mirepoix stewing in butter, splash of wine or other liquid that might be added by the Chef.The method of oven or stove cooking is by means of dry heat surrounding the pan that is in a closed chamber or compartment. The heat source is not direct; it is general and even; the pan simply transfers it from all sides.Proudly made in the U.S.A. Consider investing and collecting only the best.
