Perfect for slow cooking, the doufeu offers an innovative take on the traditional Dutch oven. The recessed lid is designed to hold ice; as the dish cooks, rising steam hits the cooled lid and condenses before dripping back onto the food. This self-basting effect keeps food moist and flavors intense. Available in Le Creuset's classic cherry color, each doufeu is the product of time-honored casting techniques and rigorous hand finishing at Le Creuset's foundry in northern France.
