Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Le Creuset 2-3/4-Quart Soup Pot, Red
Customer Review: It's called a soup pot for a reason...
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this soup pot. I own virtually every Le Creuset item made since the sixties, plus a few pieces handed down to me. And an excellent soup pot it is. I also recommend their new Doufeu which I own and love. Best meat cooker I have ever owned.
The difference between this and the various Le Creuset dutch ovens is the curved shape which allows soup stocks and broths to simmer slow and not have any meat or vegetables settle into straight sides. This can be tricky for the serious cook, because food that cannot be stirred completely can settle and overcook leaving an off taste. The size is also nice for two to six healthy servings of a hearty soup or stew.
And the cost isn't that high when one considers the near one hundred year guarantee Le Creuset offers on its products. And its called a soup pot not a casserole. So one can simmer on a low flame any soup, with the heavy cast iron core holding the heat at a steady temperature which is what produces the best soups.
Description of Le Creuset 2-3/4-Quart Soup Pot, Red
The mouth of this gently rounded pot measures 9 inches across, while its flat bottom is only 4 inches, allowing you to use the small burner on your stove for a relatively big pot: the wide surface area will speed any soup or stock reduction you have in mind. Cast iron, of course, has marvelous heating qualities, so heat spreads evenly from this pot's base up its sides. You can also use this soup pot in the oven; loop handles help you carry and lift even the heaviest casserole. The baked-on interior and exterior enamel coating means this pot will not react with any acidic foods and is easy to clean. The glorious enameled colors of Le Creuset's cookware makes it suitable for the table, as well. --Schuyler IngleSaucepans
