Dishwasher safe but easy to wash up by hand, too.
`Chasseur Cast Iron Cookware has been produced in the Ardennes region in France since 1924. Recognised the world over as being ideal for slow cooking due to its heat retention properties, cast iron cookware is also prefect for frying, grilling and roasting. Every piece of Chasseur cast iron cookware is individually manufactured and hand finished to ensure premium quality and durability.'
There has been much debate over the `best French cast iron cookware'. Regular readers of the `Amazon Reviewer' reviews will be aware that I have tended to favour another well known brand, mainly through habit.....as it is, and always has been, a major part of my own family kitchen. As a direct result, alternative purchases have been largely unnecessary due to the longevity of cast iron cookware. So...... when I was asked to review `Chasseur' cookware, based on a selection of items, `provided'- to try out, I was a little sceptical that they would hit that all important 5* mark. How wrong one can be. However nervous one may be of:- `is less expensive=less overall value, in the long run?' I have to say, it does not apply to this range of cookware. It does exactly what the manufacturer states:- `Chasseur cast iron cookware simply offers professional quality at reasonable prices.' And I really can't argue with that!
Possibly the only thing to consider is that `the other company' does offer a lifetime guarantee (except the non-stick lines), whereas `Chasseur' has a 10 year guarantee. I am not in a position to comment on the latter - YET, but -watch this space, 10 years from now, for an update!
