Cast Iron 7 Qt Dutch Oven

Viking Cast Iron is a natural addition, perfect for providing the natural heat retention required for roasting, braising, searing and more. Designed for efficiency, most cooking can be done on low to medium heat. Viking Cast Iron will distribute and retain the heat evenly, allowing the pan to reach and maintain ideal cooking temperatures with lower energy requirements. Conversely, Cast Iron holds cold temperatures equally well for food storage and serving or preparing cold recipes.

Viking Cast Iron features a non-reactive glossy enamel interior that is durable enough to handle metal utensils but will not react with foods, maintaining the flavor during cooking. The exterior of each piece is coated with matte enamel that helps resist chips and cracks while keeping maintenance to a minimum. The Dutch Ovens and other braiser feature lid spikes on the interior of the lid to "self-baste" by distributing condensation back into the pot during cooking. The end result means less evaporation, keeping meets tender while helping to retain vegetable nutrients that may otherwise evaporate.
