 the best rice I've ever madeMay 12, 2007
By Michele furtado
"love to cook"
This is a great sauce pan. I made the best spanish rice in it, moist and silky, not too wet and not too dry. cooked evenly, and love the vent in the lid. The only drawback is that it is heavy compared to other pans. I aso love the versatile color. I will continue adding to my collection of Le Crueset.

 Wow, great risotto panJul 23, 2008
By dan_r
Being enameled cast iron, this thing gets very hot very evenly. I have moved cheese sauces to another saucier because of the heat factor. Non-cheese based sauces to tremendously in this saucier.
It heats so evenly and the inside has no seams or corners for sauce to hide in. I have found that it handles risotto fantastically!
The size is fine for 4 people but beyond that, you should consider another pan. Another limiting factor is the enamel... Remember that the inside is enameled as well as the outside. That makes food-sticking issues and clean up small problems. The rub is this; you shouldn't use metal whips on the ceramic surface. That means you have to use wooden utensils or silicon coated whips. I have a Le Creuset silicon whip and it's a pain to use and clean. Recently, that's discouraged me from using this saucier and I find myself using a larger, clad stainless steel saucier.
Overall, I'm happy with this. The risotto alone makes it a keeper, but small size and ceramic interior have forced me to use another saucier. If I had it to do all over again, I would have just bought the bigger saucier to begin with...

LOVE IT!Mar 08, 2008
By Getting There
This is almost too pretty to cook with. Nothing has ever stuck to it. It is so easy to clean that I love using it and I really love cooking more. The lid is also a great fit. I wish I could get one in every color and size. You won't regret this purchase! Perfect size too: not too small, not too big.

excellentFeb 27, 2009
By Sarah
I really like this pan. It cooks things very well, and the vent hole is nice. I did have an incident that I cooked milk at too high a heat, and it boiled over and shot out of the vent hole like a geyser. That was my fault, though. You do not have to use as high a heat as you would with other pans, and it keeps heat nicely. I have bought several le creuset pans recently, and they are just as if not easier to clean than my old cheap teflon covered pans. I am really happy that I made the switch!
