Description

Featuring a distinctive Essential design, this robust cast iron pot reliably retains and distributes heat evenly – ideal for aromatic stews, baking crusty bread, or making succulent braised dishes from the open fire, stove top or grill. Thanks to its pre-seasoned finish, it's ready to use immediately and develops an increasingly strong, natural non-stick effect as time goes on. The multifunctional lid transforms in no time into a fully functional frying pan, ideal for use on a grill or over an open fire.

Thanks to its reduced material thickness, the pot remains lighter than classic Dutch ovens without sacrificing stability, making it easy to transport. Its practical hanging mechanism allows the pot to be suspended directly over a campfire, ensuring even cooking without touching the ground. Whether braising, simmering, baking, or roasting, the Dutch oven reliably delivers robust flavours, succulent results, and baked crusts reminiscent of traditional stone stone ovens. The lid provides additional space for searing, reducing, or serving.

Available in three sizes – FT4.5, FT6 and FT9 – it can accompany you on every trip. Durable, versatile and suitable for all heat sources, it will quickly become the heart of your cooking adventures.
