Le Creuset is the best of the best when it comes to enameled cast-iron cookware, so we pay attention anytime we see a Le Creuset sale anywhere on the internet. Year after year, the French cookware company gets top marks from us in our tests of the best Dutch ovens. Le Creuset’s biggest drawback is that its products can get pretty expensive, and worthwhile price reductions actually don’t happen that often. This weekend the company is running markdowns on several items through various retailers, but Amazon has the greatest selection. Some of these items are practical staples, while others are deep cuts that will appeal to the more dedicated Le Creuset–heads. Check out the deals below:
Sauteuse Oven
The sauteuse is like a shallower version of the iconic Dutch oven, but is not any less useful than its more famous sibling. This is a great do-anything pot for a one- or two-person household. It is shallow enough to function as a sauté pan, but deep enough to allow for several hours of slow braising.
Tea Kettle
Sure, electric kettles are great and all, but try to go out and find one that looks as classically beautiful as these Le Creuset enameled steel ones.
Stoneware Canister
If you have ever dealt with flour beetles, you know that spices and other dried goods can be easily compromised by improper storage. Canisters like these, with tight-sealing beechwood lids designed for easy stacking, are a practical and elegant solution to keeping your best spices, sugars, and flours, fresh and free from uninvited guests.
Deep Round Grill
While we all wish outdoor grilling could go on all year, lighting up a grill in cold, frigid weather may not be the most appealing activity. That’s why a grill pan is such a great addition to a kitchen, as it allows you to replicate the hard sear and char marks of a grill without ever having to step outside. These cast-iron grills can easily reach high temperatures, and their tall sides keep grease from spilling over and causing flare-ups.
Listen, these are quality salt and pepper shakers. But they are also definitely a decorative addition for those of you out there looking to have a Le Creuset everything kitchen. If you want there to be some visual unity between your cook space and your dining space, a pair of these are essential.
