Not too big, not too small - just right...
At 3.5qt, the Nest Dutch Oven is the ideal size for a whole hen, a juicy roast, or baking your perfect loaf of bread.
Its interior gets the same treatment as our skillets too - machined smooth, all the way up the sidewalls. That means you can go from searing to roasting with no worry of sticking.
The included self-basting lid features a beautiful brass knob, and fits interchangabley on our 9” Skillet. Universal design means you get the most from your cookware, no matter the meal.
Don't use the dishwasher - The steamy combination of hot water and harsh soap will very effectively and very quickly strip the seasoning off of your cast iron cookware and most likely leave it quite rusty.
Don't soak it in the sink - An hour is probably fine. Two hours, you might be pushing it. Overnight, you’ll be sad. Soaking cast iron cookware in water for long periods of time (even if it’s well seasoned) will make it rusty.
Don't use soap - at least not all the time - Dish soap is often advertised as being able to cut through grease and oil. While this is great for your plates, it’s not great for seasoned cast iron cookware. With proper care, you won’t need to use soap often, if at all.
