Last year we were approached by Paul Wolfert (she has used several of our pots in the past) to see if we could make a cassole similiar to one she had bought in France years ago. She was updating her famous book, "The Cooking of Southwest France" and needed a pot large enough to hold the whole cassoulet recipe (over 5 quarts) and shpaed to properly bake this wonderful dish.
So here it is...about 13 inches across the rim, 2 handles and about 7 inches tall. It's a big pot! And it just about matches the original from France that Paula has pictured on the front of her cookbook.
Use this pot for more than cassoulet, try and baked dish for entertaining company. Think stew, chili, or any other type of casserole.
