Spring is the season of florals, pastels and gorgeous Le Creuset pans — and the one we’ve been eyeing for a while is officially back in stock on Amazon. The Le Creuset Signature Enameled Cast Iron Petal Braiser does the heavy lifting for cooking tasks and doubles as a stunning piece of floral spring decor. It makes a great gift for Easter or Mother’s Day, and Meghan Markle even uses it in her Netflix series, “With Love, Meghan.” It has arrived just in time for a blooming spring, and here’s why we think it’s worth the splurge.
This Le Creuset Petal Braiser isn’t just your average pot. This small-but-mighty braiser has a shallow, 2.25-quart shape that’s perfect for baking cobblers, making pasta sauces, slow-cooking meats and frying up veggies. With a detailed floral petal design, this pot is pretty enough to leave on your countertop or stove as a decor piece. It also comes in seven gorgeous pastel colors that are perfect for Easter brunch.
Compared to other Le Creuset pots (like the Signature Round Dutch Oven or the Cast Iron Signature Braiser), this one is much lighter, so it’s easy to move from the oven to the stove. It’s oven-safe up to 500 degrees and compatible with all stovetops, including induction. The tight-fitting lid locks in steam and moisture so your dishes won’t dry out. It’s also easy to clean and the durable enamel prevents it from cracking, dulling and staining over time.
Amazon reviewers love to use this for braising, cooking and shallow frying, and some were even inspired to purchase this pot because of Meghan Markle. “Word of mouth said to check out the beautiful Le Creuset cookware on Meghan, Duchess of Sussex’s Netflix series ‘With Love Meghan,’ episode one,” says one reviewer. “I did, and fell in love with this petal enameled cast iron cookware. … [It’s] a Mother’s Day gift to myself.”
“I used this Dutch oven to slow cook a brisket the day after it arrived. It was like cooking inside a work of art, it is that beautiful,” says another reviewer. “Beauty aside, it did an amazing job of cooking our brisket to slow perfection. What a luxury to cook with such a gorgeous but practical piece of cookware.”
So, if you need an excuse to cook more meals at home, or to try out one of Meghan Markle’s recipes from her show, this Le Creuset Signature Enameled Cast Iron Petal Braiser will certainly inspire you. Add it to cart for a fun spring kitchen decor piece.
