The Le Creuset Dutch Oven’s Cousin Is 43% Off

There aren’t many enameled cast-iron cookware pieces from Le Creuset that I wouldn’t buy. I love the material—it’s so durable and easy to cook with. While they’re a worthwhile investment, they are expensive. That’s why it pays to grab pieces on sale, like this cousin to a Dutch oven: the sauteuse. 

As Le Creuset explains, the sauteuse is “a cross between a deep sauté pan, fry pan and a Dutch oven. “The curved base and lower sides make it ideal for whisking sauces, tossing stir-fries, stirring creamy risottos, and serving bubbling casseroles,” the brand states.  It’s 43% off right now, saving you $150. The only catch? Colors are selling out at lightning speed. From sauces to sides, you can get so much use out of this kitchen powerhouse, so don’t miss your chance to get it on sale while there are colors still left.

Le Creuset Signature 3.5-Quart Sauteuse 

This sauteuse versatile piece of cookware  is equally useful for beginners and avid Le Creuset collectors alike. While similar to a Dutch oven, it’s aptly named a sauteuse oven for its sauté-friendly design. It’s shallower than a Dutch oven and has gently sloped sides, making it easy to stir and fry ingredients. 

This pot has a 3.5-quart capacity, so it’s a nice in-between size for far more than soups and stews: Use it for braises, one-pot dinners, sides like risotto, casseroles and more. It’s made with the brand’s coveted enameled cast-iron material, so it’ll heat evenly and hold its heat well no matter how you use it. It’s safe for any stovetop, including induction, and is oven-safe up to 500°F. The pot comes with two helper handles at the base for maneuvering, along with a slightly domed lid to distribute moisture while you’re baking. This is also ideal for keeping your food warm. 

The Le Creuset sauteuse is on sale in every color, but the colors are selling out fast. There are still 15 shades left in stock, but they’re bound to sell out like 10 colors have already. As of now, you can still shop licorice black, olive green, shallot purple and sea salt blue, plus a few others. 

Shoppers call it a “kitchen jewel,” noting that it’s excellent for smaller batches of soups or stews and takes up less space in compact kitchens than other pieces of cookware. Reviewers also noted that it’s become a go-to for everyday use, whether sauteing, frying, roasting or layering spring casseroles. 

This might just be your last chance to get the sauteuse oven before your favorite color is sold out. Shop it now for 43% off—it’s a tough Le Creuset sale to beat.
