1. Le Creuset Signature Enameled Cast-Iron Chef’s Oven, 7.5QT
If you’re looking for a piece of cookware that can do it all, a Dutch oven is likely your best bet. From braising and frying to sautéeing, roasting, and soup-making, there’s little that these multifunctional workhorses can’t do. We like this 7.5-quart beauty from Le Creuset because of its generous capacity and gorgeous colorways. Plus, like everything else from the brand, it will last for decades if taken care of properly.
