We gathered our favorite simmered stews, tender braises and easy sautéed seafood recipes so you can put your Dutch oven to good use.
But first, you may be wondering, what is a Dutch oven used for? Simple Dutch oven recipes, like a one-pot slow-simmered dinner (beef stew, anyone?), as well as baked recipes, like no-knead bread all benefit from this kitchen tool. And curious why they are so great for so many recipes? Dutch ovens are heavy-duty pots made with different types of materials. Our favorites are made with cast-iron, which gets hot quickly and holds heat well for even cooking, from browning and searing to deep-frying and even roasting. Many Dutch ovens on the market are also coated in enamel, which makes the cast-iron vessel more durable and easier to clean.
