FAQ

What is enameled cast iron cookware?

Enameled cast iron cookware is made from solid cast iron coated with a smooth enamel finish. This combination offers excellent heat retention and even cooking while eliminating the need for seasoning and protecting the cookware from rust.

Do I need to season my enameled cast iron casserole?

No. Unlike raw cast iron, enameled cast iron casseroles do not require seasoning. The enamel coating creates a natural barrier, making the cookware easy to use and maintain from the first day.

What can I cook in an enameled cast iron casserole?

Our casseroles are perfect for slow-cooked meals, stews, curries, soups, roasts, rice dishes, bread, and one-pot family meals. They are designed for everyday cooking as well as special occasions.

What heat settings should I use?

We recommend low to medium heat. Cast iron retains heat very efficiently, so high heat is rarely necessary and may damage the enamel over time.

Can I use my casserole on all stovetops?

Yes. Our enameled cast iron casseroles are suitable for gas, electric, ceramic, and induction stovetops, as well as oven use.

Is the casserole oven safe?

Yes. The casserole is oven safe and ideal for slow cooking, baking, and finishing dishes in the oven. Always use oven gloves when handling hot cookware.

How do I clean my enameled cast iron casserole?

Allow the casserole to cool before washing. Hand wash with warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive scrubbers or harsh cleaners to preserve the enamel finish.

Can I put it in the dishwasher?

Dishwasher use is not recommended. While occasional use may not cause immediate damage, repeated dishwasher cycles can dull the enamel over time. Hand washing is best for long-term care.

What utensils should I use?

We recommend wooden, silicone, or nylon utensils. Metal utensils can scratch the enamel if used aggressively.

How do I remove stains or stuck-on food?

For stubborn residue, soak the casserole in warm water or simmer water with a small amount of baking soda for 10–15 minutes. This helps loosen food naturally without damaging the enamel.

Will the enamel chip or crack?

With proper care, enameled cast iron is extremely durable. Avoid sudden temperature changes, dropping the cookware, or using it empty over high heat to maintain its longevity.

How should I store my casserole?

Ensure the casserole is completely dry before storing. If stacking cookware, place a soft cloth or paper towel between pieces to protect the enamel surface.

Is enameled cast iron sustainable?

Yes. Our casseroles are designed for long-term use, reducing the need for frequent replacements. This makes enameled cast iron a more sustainable choice compared to disposable or short-lived cookware.

Can this cookware really be passed down through generations?

That is our intention. With proper care, enameled cast iron casseroles can last for decades, carrying meals, memories, and traditions from one generation to the next.
