We have been smitten with this innovative, efficient machine ever since.

When we reviewed The Brisket Book by Stephanie Pierson, we discovered her love affair with both Brisket and Le Creuset. So, we decided to look into this nearly 90 year old company. And, yes, it was love at first use.

Occasionally we discover a kitchen tool, kitchen cookware, or a kitchen appliance which is pricey but worth the investment, even when substantial. That is the case with our Cuisinart Food processor and our Kitchenaid mixer. And, now, that is how we feel about our superb new kitchen assistant, our Le Creuset Round 7 1/4 quart French Oven.

In 1925 Armand Desaegher, a casting specialist, and Octave Aubecq, an enameling expert, recognized an opportunity to improve the versatility of cast iron cookware by coating it in a porcelain enamel glaze. Their foundry was opened in  Fresnoy-le-Grand, France, a location chosen due to the accessibility  of iron, coke, and sand needed for their process. That year their new company, Le Creuset, produced the first cocotte, or French oven, laying the foundation for what is now an extensive range of enameled cast iron cookware and kitchen utensils. That first piece was created in the signature Le Creuset color, Flame.

After an early expansion of their product range, the second world war brought troubled times. During the war years the company focused  on continually improving their product, and in the 1950]]> ContactUs@KosherEye.com (Lois Held) Cookware Sun, 20 Nov 2011 21:58:45 +0000 http://erevwww.koshereye.com/koshereye-features/cookware/1303-pressure-cooker-wmf-perfect-plus.html http://erevwww.koshereye.com/koshereye-features/cookware/1303-pressure-cooker-wmf-perfect-plus.html Quick, Healthy, Handy

Are you always  looking for ways to prepare nutritious hot meals for the family and not spend hours in the kitchen? Well, we are! We are always searching for the best kitchen shortcuts and tools, and  have now added the pressure cooker to our list of "kitchen helpers."

Forget the horror stories that you have heard about exploding pressure cooker pots and food splattered on the ceiling and walls. The design of the modern pressure cooker safety valve eliminates that scary feature from years ago. We were delighted when we received the WMF Perfect Plus Pressure Cooker 6.5 liter model for testing.  However, don't think that we didn't think of those old exploding pots because we did. But we did our homework ]]> ContactUs@KosherEye.com (Lois Held) Cookware Tue, 25 Oct 2011 22:33:50 +0000
