Simmering is a technique where liquid is brought to a subtle boil an dfood is cooked slowly and gently. The Le Creuset's Chef's Dutch Oven is the ideal piece for stovetop simmering with its sloped sides that simplify stirring and promote continuous movement. This technique is ideal for softening foods and brinding out the flavours of a dish such a soup, stew or sauce and slow cooking meats. Make sure to check in on the dish regularly and stir as needed.
