Lodge Color Enameled Cast-Iron 6-Quart Dutch Oven, Island Spice Reviews
Wonderful Dutch Oven,
I have been looking at enameled cast iron cookware and have not purchased one due to their prices. When I saw this one I was excited. I own a non-enamel lodge cast iron dutch oven and a frying pan and have been impressed with their quality. I have had them for several of my rookie cooking years and have not taken care of them in the way that cast iron cookware should be taken care of...cleaning pots immediately and not letting them "soak" and caring to oil them after being cleaned. I am from cajun country so buying a cast iron pot with an enamel coating seems like cheating, since you are supposed to be seasoning them with every meal and the pot should be better and better every time you use it, but I must have gone wrong somewhere along the way. The pots quality is excellent and it's finish is flawless. I have been very impressed with the meals that have come out of it so far. It is easier to clean up than regular cast iron and also the flavors don't seep into the pot. I cook a lot of different ethnicities of food so I don't want my thai food to have a slight cajun roux flavor just as I wouldn't want a gumbo or stew to have curried or ginger flavors. I love this pot my husband laughs at me because every meal, big or small, that I have cooked since I got this in the mail has come out of this pot. But I want to use it as much as I can, and the pretty red color is nice to look at as well. This has been a great purchase.
