The Le Creuset Signature Round Braiser with Glass Lid in Shallot is a 2.25-quart enameled cast iron braiser that brings steady, even heat to your favorite braised and seared dishes. The wide base allows ingredients to cook in a single layer without crowding, while the tempered glass lid circulates steam to lock in moisture and flavor. Perfect for home cooks who want a versatile, heirloom-quality pan, the Signature Round Braiser transitions effortlessly from stovetop to oven.
Made from enameled cast iron, this braiser delivers superior heat distribution and retention, so you get deep browning and gentle simmering every time. The smooth, light-colored interior enamel lets you watch the cooking process and resists dulling, staining, chipping, and cracking. Because it's ready to use without seasoning, you can start braising chicken thighs, sweating aromatics, or shallow-frying fritters right away.
This size is ideal for 2 to 4 servings—perfect for braised short ribs, pot roast, or a generous batch of ratatouille. The wide base ensures you can sear without crowding, which is key for developing rich flavor. Once you add liquid, the tight-fitting glass lid keeps steam inside and lets you check on dinner without losing heat.
Shallot is a beautiful soft pink that brings a subtle, romantic glow to your kitchen. The enamel exterior is tough enough for daily use, while the ergonomic stainless steel knob and wide handles make lifting easy. The entire pot is oven-safe to 500°F (260°C) without the lid and 425°F (218°C) with the glass lid, and it works on all cooktops, including induction.
When choosing a braiser, think about the dishes you make most. The 2.25 qt size is a great first braiser for smaller households. Cleanup is simple—the enamel is dishwasher safe, though hand washing will keep it looking new. With minimal care, your Le Creuset will be a kitchen workhorse for years.

Braising is the secret to tender, deeply flavored meat. Start by patting your protein dry and searing it in a little oil on medium-high heat until deeply browned on all sides. Remove it, add aromatics, deglaze with wine or stock, then return the meat with liquid until it comes about a third of the way up. Cover with the glass lid and transfer to a 325°F oven for a few hours—or simmer gently on the stovetop. The tight-fitting lid keeps steam in, so you rarely need to add more liquid.
Le Creuset has been making enameled cast iron in northern France since 1925. The secret is a sand-cast mold, a high-temperature enamel finish, and a focus on durability. Unlike bare cast iron, the enamel coating never needs seasoning, doesn't react with acidic foods like tomatoes or wine, and cleans up with minimal effort. The result is a pan that can go from stovetop to oven to table—and then become a family heirloom.
Shallot is a delicate blush pink that brings a fresh, modern feel to any kitchen. It's a popular choice for those who want a softer alternative to traditional red or orange.

Shallot is lovely.
The shallot purple is subtle. It's a good size for small meals. The glass lid is convenient.
I bought this for my wife and she loves the color. It's a soft lavender-gray that looks sophisticated. The pot itself is well made and heats evenly. We've used it for braising chicken and it's been great. The lid fits well. Cleanup is easy. It's a bit pricey but worth it.
Perfect for rice.
The shallot color is unique. It cooks well. I wish it were a little larger.
I was torn between this and the pastel pink, but the shallot is more versatile. It looks gorgeous on my stove. The braiser cooks evenly and cleans easily. The glass lid lets me see the food. It's heavy but that's fine. I use it at least three times a week. I'm very happy with this purchase.
Cooks well.
