The product looks rustic as well as elegant due to its oak handle. Its size makes the casserole perfect for preparing sauces as well as for cooking eggs, vegetables or rice. The wooden handle fits securely in the hand during food preparation, but it can get hot during use due to the effective heat distribution. We, therefore, recommend that you always use oven mitts. The saucepan and lid are easy to clean with hot water and washing-up liquid. Suitable for all types of cookers, including induction.
