A design directly from the Le Creuset archives of the 1930s and 1940s, the Le Creuset Heritage Legumier was originally designed for the preparation of vegetables (or legume side dishes). With its practical round shape and easy sloping sides, the Le Creuset Legumier is an essential pot for preparing vegetables, risottos and rice dishes. An almost exact replica from the Le Creuset archives, this versatile piece looks great in the kitchen or on the dinner table.
Since 1925, the skilled craftsmen at Le Creuset have perfected enameled cast iron cookware. The Heritage Collection is inspired by the designs of some of the earliest examples of Le Creuset Cast Iron Cookware. It celebrates Le Creuset's rich culinary legacy, capturing the spirit of these signature designs and brin g a refined look to the modern kitchen.
Le Creuset Cast Iron cookware has many benefits including:
- All Le Creuset products are coated with the highest quality vitreous enamel. This hygienic, impermeable enameled surface means Le Creuset can be used for marinating food prior to cooking or for food storage after cooking.
- Le Creuset Cast Iron is a superior conductor of heat. The even thickness of the base, walls and lid mean that heat distribution is even and energy efficient. The heavy, tight-fitting lids ensure that moisture and flavors are sealed in the pot.
- Le Creuset knobs and handles are ovenproof to 400°, allowing for an easy transition from stovetop to oven to table
