Le Creuset Olive Branch Collection Braiser, 3.5 qt.

The Olive Branch Signature Braiser is embossed with a refined olive branch motif inspired by the sun-drenched fields of Provence that is a sophisticated addition to any kitchen. Both functional and beautiful, its uniquely designed to provide steady, even heat to transform tough cuts of meat and hearty vegetables into tender, flavorful dishes. The wide base allows ingredients to be placed in a single layer for searing without crowding; once liquid is added, the heavy lid circulates steam to lock in moisture. The versatile shape is also perfect for sauting, shallow frying, steaming, casseroles and serving at the table.

Crafted from our legendary enameled cast iron, the Olive Branch Signature Braiser has exceptional heat distribution and retention qualities to lock in flavor and keep dishes warm from stove to oven to table. The colorful enameled surface minimizes sticking and staining, requires no pre-seasoning, and is easy-to-clean.
