Petite Doufeu, (What's this?) A more useful size for 1 or 2 people than the 5,6, or 9 qt/liter. It's perfect as a crockpot substitute. I rarely use ice in the top but it is an option that works well. I just tend to spill the melted water when removing it.
Le Creuset quality. Looks great.
It's Great!, (What's this?) This makes cooking a breeze! I'm not a terrific cook when it comes to meat, but this doufeu helped even me. Simple instructions for an easy prep and then just wait till it's done. Similar to cooking in a crock pot, but you can brown and then slow cook all in one pot and very easy clean up! End result is better than a crock pot too, the meat is tender, but not over done and still has distinctive flavor. I would definitely use the doufeu instead of a crock pot if someone was going to be home during the cooking time.
Le Creuset 2.5 qt Doufeu, (What's this?) A unique casserole from Le Creuset. I learned of this 1924 invention in a cook book by the late Mireille Johnston. The 2 qt size is just right for two people. It is tricky adding water repeatedly into the lid if cooking in the oven so this is probably best reserved for cooking on the stovetop. Results with a daube provencale very good but despite the heavy lid more steam escapes during cooking than with a ceramic casserole using a traditional flour seal under the lid so you need to add more liquid than you would using a traditional daubiere.
no regrets., (What's this?) I bought this Le Creuset after I saw on twitter that this cast iron was on sale. The size is perfect for a small size cooking, or if you're on portion control diet. My husband and I only live the two of us, and we use this pot a lot for slow cooking meals, beef roast, pork roast, soup, etc. And sometimes we do still have few leftovers. I don't have any cons that I'd like to review for this product. Le Creuset never fails on me. As long as you take a good care of it, read the manual and follow all the cleaning instruction, this thing can go for years.
Great bargain for one or two, (What's this?) I have a lot of Le Creuset purchased individually over the past 30 plus years. This little doufeu is one of my favorites and a great bargain in the line. Basically the design differs from the French ovens by offering a loop handled top that's designed to accept ice cubes or water in the lid.
yummy, (What's this?)
not such a deal, (What's this?) A week after buying from amazon as a deal of the day, I saw it for sale on William and Sanoma website for $5 less! Still a good product.
Great Slow Cooking Pot, (What's this?) Works great for top of the stove slow cooking without the food drying out and constant attention. Will be looking for a larger version and would definitely buy again.
Smaller than I thought, (What's this?)
LeCreuset small Doufeu, (What's this?) I absolutely love LeCreuset cookware. It's the best of the best. A little pricey, but you get what you pay for and after using it the first time, you'll never regret buying it. I was extremely lucky when I purchased my Dune colored Doufeu. Apparently, there was an error on the price when entered and the price was so incredibly low, I felt like I had stolen this pot. Within hours, I went back to purchase two more for my daughters and they had already changed the price. What a lucky break for me. Amazon's pricing in very competitive with the on-line kitchen stores.
Cooking with LeCreuset cookware makes cooking fun. I also love the beautiful color choices I never stick to just one color, I prefer mixing the colors, makes for a "happy kitchen".
Can also be used as a dutch oven, when not using as a doufeu.Hand washing recommended; oven-safe at any oven temperature.2-1/2-Quart round-shaped doufeu made of enameled cast iron.Enamled cast iron distributes heat slowly and evenly, and is ideal for slow cooking.Heavy, tight-fitting lid helps lock in heat, moisture, and flavor. Le Creuset 2-1/2-Quart Round Doufeu. The doufeu is the original dutch oven, taking it's name from the combination of the French doux and feu or "gentle fire." Tight fitting lid is designed to hold ice cubes, so that the warm vapor from the simmering food meets the cool lid, promotion condensation. Dimples under the lid cause the condensation to drop back in to the lid continually basting the food in the pot. This process aids in creating a juicy and moist roast or cut of meat.
