Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 2-Quart Heart Casserole

Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 2-Quart Heart Casserole

Le Creuset is famous for coating its heavy, cast-iron cookware with not just one, but two layers of enamel baked on at 1,450 degrees F, resulting in gloriously bright colors.

This bright-red, heart-shaped casserole adds a note of whimsy to dishes, but its 2-quart capacity, handles, and heavy-duty construction make it practical as well. Both its interior and exterior are enameled - as are the bottoms of all Le Creuset pots and pans–to prevent scratching glass-topped stoves. The enamel surface will not react with any acidic foods and is easy to clean. The weight and nature of cast iron make for even heat distribution. This cookware gives you all the benefits of cast iron without the painstaking care.

Wimmeley PizzaDome Portable Italian Brick Pizza Oven

Wimmeley PD601 PizzaDome Portable Italian Pizza Oven

A great gift for pizza lovers! Enjoy authentic brick-oven taste just like at an old-fashioned pizzeria with this portable pizza oven. The compact unit can be used on a countertop or table and provides a fun and entertaining way to gather with friends and family. It heats up in about 15 minutes, without the use of open flames, and features a handmade natural-clay dome that retains and circulates heat for even cooking.

Simply roll out homemade or store-bought pizza dough, cut personal-sized pizzas (4-1/2 inches per pizza) using the included dough cutter, and place the precut dough onto one of the six included high-quality stainless-steel spatulas. Then add chopped veggies, mounds of cheese, or any other favorite topping, and slide the pizza into the oven.

Pizzas bake up sizzling and golden brown in about six to eight minutes. Six openings allow for making up to six personal brick-oven pizzas at a time or choose to create calzones, bruschetta, cookies, and more. The dome wipes clean with a damp cloth, and the spatulas, cooking plate, and cutter should be hand-washed with a rough sponge. A detailed cookbook with great-tasting recipes and instructions come included. The portable brick oven measures 16 by 16 by 10 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
