Product Description:
While the inspiration for this pan came from the tempting, homey, Tarte Tatin, a beautifully simple dessert recipe treasured in France, this beautiful Le Creuset piece is perfect for everyday and special days, appetizers, main courses and desserts. Handcrafted of porcelain enamel cast iron, it's designed to perform with recipes that are started on top of the stove and are finished in the oven. It's nearly 9.75-inches in diameter and large flat side handles that make it easy to lift, rotate or flip foods over onto a plate. Today's cooks will appreciate the joy of Tatin-style cooking since it looks more difficult and elaborate than it is, and all the preparation and cooking can be done in just one dish.
Amazon.com Review:
If you've ever fallen in love with a tarte Tatin, an upside-down dessert of caramelized apples, you'll want this pan. Le Creuset knows French cooking inside and out, and designed the shallow 9-3/4-inch round pan specifically for such a tarte. The durable, enameled cast iron can take the heat of any type of stovetop burner to caramelize the sugar and apples. After the pastry is placed on the apples, the pan slips into the oven for baking. The cast iron distributes and retains heat superbly, and the pan's wide flat handles give you excellent leverage for flipping the finished dessert onto a platter. Ouila! Your guests will be impressed at both the incredible taste and presentation. p The heavy two-quart tarte tatin pan with its nonporous, scratch-resistant enamel also works beautifully for marinating meats, caramelizing onions, sautéing vegetables, and baking cakes, pies, and quiches. It even goes under the broiler and finally, into the dishwasher for easy cleaning. In short, this is an amazingly versatile pan that is new to many American home chefs. Choose one from a variety of colors to match your other Le Creuset cookware, and give another as a gift. Made in France, each is covered by a lifetime warranty. I--Ann Bieri/I
