{"product_id":"le-creuset-essential-non-stick-ceramic-stock-pot-24cm","title":"Le Creuset Non-Stick Ceramic Stock Pot 24cm","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Le Creuset Non-Stick Ceramic Stock Pot has tall, straight sides that make it well suited to soups, stocks, and large-batch cooking where you need depth rather than surface area. The included glass lid traps steam to keep liquids reducing efficiently, and the PFAS-free ceramic coating means cleaning out the pot after a long simmer is considerably easier than with an uncoated equivalent. Like the rest of the range it is induction compatible and oven safe to 280 degrees C, making it a genuinely versatile piece for everyday cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePFAS-free ceramic coating: Applied all over the pan, the ceramic coating provides strong non-stick release and wipes clean easily, and is made without PFAS. \u003cbr\u003eForged heavy-gauge aluminium body: The forged aluminium construction distributes heat evenly across the cooking surface, reducing hot spots and helping food cook consistently. \u003cbr\u003eFully encased stainless steel induction disc: A stainless steel disc is permanently encased in the base, making the pan fully compatible with induction hobs as well as all other heat sources. \u003cbr\u003eOven safe to 280 degrees C: The pan can go from hob to oven up to 280 degrees C, or 220 degrees C with a Le Creuset glass lid, adding versatility to hob-to-oven cooking. \u003cbr\u003eMetal utensil safe and warp-resistant: The durable coating can withstand contact with metal utensils, and a reinforced rim prevents the pan from warping over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiameter: 24cm \u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Forged heavy-gauge aluminium with PFAS-free ceramic coating and fully encased stainless steel induction disc \u003cbr\u003eHob compatibility: All hobs including induction, gas, electric, ceramic glass, and grill \u003cbr\u003eOven safe: Up to 280 degrees C (220 degrees C with Le Creuset glass lid) \u003cbr\u003eLid: Glass lid included \u003cbr\u003eUtensils: Metal utensil safe \u003cbr\u003eCountry of manufacture: China \u003cbr\u003eSKU: 342477 \u003cbr\u003eEAN: 0630870350815 \u003cbr\u003eMPN: 51313240010598 \u003cbr\u003eGuarantee: 10 years (Le Creuset)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCare instructions:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEveryday cleaning: Wash by hand with warm soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge after each use. The ceramic coating releases food easily, so soaking is rarely needed. \u003cbr\u003eDishwasher use: The pan is dishwasher-safe, though hand washing is recommended to maintain the coating and extend the life of the finish. \u003cbr\u003eCooking temperature: The ceramic coating performs best on low to medium heat. High heat is rarely needed and can accelerate wear on any non-stick surface over time. \u003cbr\u003eUtensils: Metal utensils can be used, but silicone or wooden tools will extend the life of the coating. Avoid sharp or cutting implements directly in the pan. \u003cbr\u003eWhat to avoid: Do not use aerosol cooking sprays, as these can build up on the ceramic surface and reduce its release properties. Do not stack pans directly without protection between them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuestions and answers:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIs this compatible with induction hobs? \u003cbr\u003eYes. All Le Creuset Essential Non-Stick Ceramic pieces have a fully encased stainless steel disc in the base, which makes them compatible with induction as well as gas, electric, ceramic glass, and grill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCan I use metal utensils with this pan? \u003cbr\u003eYes, the coating is rated as metal utensil safe. That said, using silicone or wooden tools as a first preference will help the coating last longer. Sharp or cutting implements directly in the pan are best avoided.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDoes the lid come included? \u003cbr\u003eNo, the glass lid is sold separately. The pan is oven safe to 280 degrees C without a lid, or 220 degrees C when used with a Le Creuset heat-resistant glass lid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is the capacity of this stockpot? \u003cbr\u003eLe Creuset do not publish a litre capacity for this piece, but the 24cm diameter with tall, straight sides gives a substantial volume suitable for family-sized batches of soup or stock. If capacity is a deciding factor for you, it is worth comparing the stated dimensions against similar stockpots you may already own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Le Creuset","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57007475491194,"sku":"342477","price":179.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0072\/1875\/7690\/files\/2K_SQUARE_JPG-20240327_GS_51313240010598_100_3961187d-456a-40b4-be6b-18ce7e2e7935.jpg?v=1782397026","url":"https:\/\/aolcookshop.co.uk\/products\/le-creuset-essential-non-stick-ceramic-stock-pot-24cm","provider":"Art of Living Cookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
