Le Creuset adds a saucier to their line of enameled cast iron. The splayed sides and wide and shallow design of this 2-1/4 qt. saucepan allows you to reduce sauces faster because of evenness of heat transfer and retention. As with all Le Creuset cookware, the saucier is usable on any heat source - stovetop (gas or electric) and oven. Because of the excessive weight of this item, a $4.00 shipping surcharge will be applied.
