Thanks to the magnetic properties found in cast iron, the Viking Enameled Cast-Iron 7-Quart Oval Roaster may also be used on induction cooktops. Perfect for stews, desserts and much more, professional chefs and home cooks alike have long relied on cast iron as a reliable and versatile cooking vessel; that is due to the consistent and even heating found in iron. Plus, the attractive gray color of the interior enamel finish means that stains will be less noticeable than the cream interiors found in other enameled cast iron cookware.

Between the long-lasting durability of cast iron and its incredible cooking versatility, the Enameled Cast-Iron 7-Quart Oval Roaster from Viking is one you’ll love for years to come. No matter if you are cooking a beef stew or a whole chicken, you will also find that the oval shape better accommodates the size of your proteins more easily when compared to round roasters. The lid features built-in braising spikes to recirculate moisture, keeping your foods tender and flavorful during the braising process. Because it’s suitable to take from stovetop to oven, you can brown your meat on the stovetop to seal in those flavors and juices before placing straight into the oven to cook low-and-slow for hours.

Caring for your Viking Enameled Cast-Iron 7-Quart Oval Roaster is easy. Simply hand wash after each use and either air dry or wipe dry with a clean dishtowel.
