Cooking with cast ironEnameled cast iron is a remarkable and robust material that performs well with modern requirements for food preparation and cooking. Whether you choose to stir-fry, slow-cook a casserole, sear a steak or bake a cake, there is a shape that is suitable. Cast iron performs well for either slow cooking or high-temperature searing. Cast iron can be used reliably on any heat source, including induction, and with any oven or grill. It has the ability to retain heat efficiently, which allows for use of lower heat settings in stove-top and oven cooking. On the table, a hot covered dish will keep food hot for second servings. Cast iron can also be used to keep foods cold. A chilled dish becomes an ideal cold food server on a hot summer day. It can also be placed in the freezer for food storage or advanced food preparation. |
Heat recommendationsLe Creuset cast iron cookware can be used on all heat sources including gas, electric solid plate or radiant ring, vitro-ceramic glass, induction, and ovens fired by gas, oil, coal or wood. When using any glass-topped stove, always lift the pan when moving it; never slide it, as this may damage the stove-top or the base of the pan. Always match the pan’s base size to the stove-top heat zone to maximize efficiency, and to prevent overheating of the pan sides or damage to the handles. Gas flames must always be confined to the base area, and must never extend around the sidewalls of the pan. Long handles should be positioned safely where they do not hang over the front of the stove or other heat zones. |
Cleaning and CareAlways cool a hot pan for a few minutes before washing. Do not plunge a hot pan into cold water. While Le Creuset’s enamel is designed to be the most durable on the market, thermal shock may still occur, resulting in cracking or loss of enamel. If there are food residues, fill the pan with warm water and let soak for 15 to 20 minutes before washing. A brush can be useful for removing small food deposits, or for cleaning between the ribs on grills. Do not use scourers or abrasive cleaners on the cooking surface. Nylon or soft abrasive pads or brushes can be used to remove stubborn residues. To avoid damaging the enamel, do not use metallic pads or harsh abrasive cleaning agents. Light stains or metal marks caused by metal tools can be removed with Le Creuset cookware cleaner. An occasional cleaning with this product will also retain the new appearance of your pans. Never store pans while they are still damp. Store pans in a dry cupboard or airy space away from steam. |

I grew up with Bon Ami using it all around the house but I hadn't seen it in stores for decades. I had even forgotten about it until I was watching an old movie re-run of "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken" (the cleanser name was used as a running gag during the movie). My wife looked at me with much skepticism when I mentioned trying Bon Ami to clean her new pots (she thought Bon Ami was a made-up name in the movie). Additionally, she has always maintained the "new" cleansers would be better than the old ones because of advancements in science and chemistry.
Bon Ami household cleanser has been around since 1886 and contains no harsh chemicals or abrasives (how many original products are still being manufactured after 129 years that DON'T work?...not many, I'd say). I got a can of Bon Ami and, with my wife looking over my shoulder, arms crossed and a sneer on her face (she was sure Bon Ami wouldn't work OR it would ruin the pot forever) I applied a sprinkle of Bon Ami and, after a little elbow grease, my wife was beaming. Whew...
Don't waste your time and money on other cleansers, Bon Ami and a sponge were all I needed to clean even the most burnt-on food from our Le Creuset. Now our pots look brand new again. FANTASTIC CLEANSER when I was a kid 50 years ago and, thankfully, the manufacturer has not tampered with its original formula making Bon Ami the 129 year reigning champ among household cleansers. We're ordering another case...
