Review on 🍳 Enhance Your Cookware: Le Creuset Signature Stainless Steel Knob, Large by Corby Muin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

EXCELLENT for HIGH TEMPERATURE use with Le Creuset cast iron. BUT.

This product allows Le Creuset enameled cast iron to be used in temperatures from 375+ to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. (Standard black phenolic handles, while cool to the touch most of the time, aren't rated for use in a very hot oven. They're safe up to 375 F.) If you have other high-temperature cooking needs, this Le Creuset striped stainless steel handle will do easily changed with a screwdriver (or a dime) and allows the use of enameled cast iron for cooking at high temperatures. Now here is the BUT part. YOU MUST USE A HOT PAD OR SILICONE MATERIAL to deal with it. If you're used to gripping the phono button with your bare hands, you'll be tempted to absent-mindedly grip it as well. NOT! I burned my hand pretty badly because I didn't even think about it. Let's not make that mistake again.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • I'm worried
