Remy Olivier enameled cast iron

If it was purchased at Stokes it is mostly likely generic of Chinese origin.

curry stain on Le Creuset

I find simmering a tomato sauce in Le Creuset for a couple hours will clean the most stubborn stains!

LC Casserole/Braiser - how do you use yours?

This is the most used pan in our kitchen and never really gets put away. We have the 30cm (3.5) brasier and we use it for everything from frying up breakfasts, making curries, making pasta sauce, searing then baking chicken pieces, to roasting a ham in the oven. A very versatile pan. Deeper than a frying pan but not as cumbersome as a dutch oven, also it is very easy to get in and out of the oven.

12" Blue Michael Lax designed Copco cast-iron skillet.

Rice Cooker advice

I have a Zojirushi Neuro Fuzzy model and every time I've tried to make steel cut outs it spatters out the top vent and I have to take it apart to clean it. How do you do it?

HELP!! I scorched my Le Creuset...

Boiling water with a little bleach in will often work. I've also found that a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser works well for cleaning up Le Creuset enamel as well.
