Avoid metal utensils

We recommend using a Le Creuset Silicone Spatula or wooden tools, to avoid damaging the surface.

Use the right hob ring

Your food will cook more evenly if you use the right sized hob right for your casserole dish. On induction, your casserole may not be recognised if you don't!

Cook on low or medium heat

Let the casserole dish heat up gradually to ensure maximum flavour in food that is cooked evenly. Always lower the temperature when possible.

Before first use

Remove all labels. Wash in hot soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. The enamelled cooking surface is ready to use and requires no further preparation.

After use

Always cool for a few minutes before washing in hot soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

Do not fill with cold water or plunge into cold water, as thermal shock damage to the enamel may occur.

If there are food residues, fill with warm water and leave to soak for 15 - 20 minutes, then wash in the usual way. Nylon or soft abrasive pads or brushes can be used to remove stubborn residues. Do not use metallic pads, or harsh abrasive cleaning agents as these will damage the enamel and polished trims.

Black enamel cooking surfaces will, over time, produce a patina (a brownish film). Do not attempt to clean this off as it enhances the cooking performance and food release from this surface.

Dry well after washing and store in a dry place.
