When it comes to getting the right tools to cook or bake, many of us know what we want. I tend to buy "made in France". My paternal grandmother, who is an excellent cook (is from Périgord) uses her Le Creuset dutch oven for many of my favorite childhood meals. As a result, when seeking a good cast iron, I compared Staub and Le Creuset. Anyhow, the cost of each was beyond my budget. In hope to save myself some $$, I scavenge local thrift stores. Well, it paid off. I found a set of 3 Blue Le Creuset cast iron pots for a fraction of the cost. I used some baking soda to clean the inside thoroughly. Today, I get to cook many of my own meals in them. I still search for more pieces to add to my growing collection.
What are your best finds?
