Mario Batali Pesto Dutch Oven:
Through his restaurants, cookbooks, products and television shows, Mario Batali breathes the spirit of the Old World into modern day America and shows us how to revel in the inherent joys of daily life.
A multi-purpose pot is a must in a home chef's kitchen, ant this wonderful 6-qt. Italian Essentials Pot by Mario Batali is the most useful you can find. Shown here in Pesto, this pot is constructed from durable enameled cast iron and has cast stainless lid knobs. Its large size can accommodate everything from pastas and seafood soups to roasts and poultry! The glossy enamel finish on both the interior and exterior makes this pot very easy to clean. The pot has an old world style with modern day accents, including self-basting spikes on the interior of the lid that ensure your roasts stay sumptuously juicy. Excellent heat retention allows this pot to go straight from oven to tabletop and it is also safe for gas, electric and ceramic-top ranges. The piece also includes a 16-page booklet with recipes from Mario Batali's latest cookbook, Molto Italiano.

by Theresa (Princeton, IL) 2 reviews I ordered this not really knowing how well it was constructed or/and if it would hold up. I did some research on it and it appeared to get positive reviews, so I went for it. I haven't been sorry I did. I recently had double carpal tunnel release surgery done, so my only complaint is the weight! This sucker is heavy..lol I look forward to the day I can put it in, and take it out, of the oven, all by myself!!
by Cynthia (Round Hill, VA) 1 review Great product, terrific price, but the free shipping on an item this heavy really tipped the scales (pun definately intended.)
by Craig (Spring Hill, FL) 1 review I've never owned a dutch oven, but after watching a cooking show that highlighted the use of a dutch oven I needed one a.s.a.p. I turned to Cooking.com because this site offers it all, sure I could have spent over $200.00 for an oven, but trusted the Mario Batali name and saved some bucks. I recommend this item.
Would purchase again
