With its lively palette and durable construction, the Color line from Lodge is great for everything from main dishes to desserts. Handcast from molten iron in individual sand molds, the line features a sturdy construction that conducts evenly and retains heat well. A double layer of chip-resistant, non-reactive porcelain enamel coats both rims and interiors, while glossy, colorful enameling covers the exteriors. Handsome as well as functional, the enamel simplifies use by eliminating the need for seasoning the cast iron while creating an ideal browning surface.

This Lodge Color skillet is a classic piece of cookware that offers a time-tested alternative to Teflon-style nonstick coating. Great for sautéing meats, vegetables, and seafood, the piece releases food well while browning beautifully. It is also safe in the oven, so a frittata can go from stovetop to oven to table without switching pans. Measuring 11 inches in diameter, the skillet comes in attractive colors and can hang from a pot rack. It also includes a helper handle, which is critical, as the piece is hefty. As with its other enameled cast iron cookware, Lodge recommends washing this skillet by hand and includes a limited lifetime warranty. --Emily Bedard This 11" Lodge color enamel skillet is great for cooking on gas, electric, ceramic and induction cooktops as well as in the oven.
