Featuring an elegant embossed snowflake design on the lid, the Noël Collection Signature Snowflake Braiser is uniquely designed to provide steady, even heat to transform meat and vegetables into flavorful, comforting dishes that will keep you warm all season long. The wide base allows ingredients to be placed in a single layer for searing without crowding. Once liquid is added, the domed lid circulates steam to lock in moisture and flavor. The versatile shape of the braiser also makes it perfect for shallow frying, steaming, stews, casserole,s and serving at the table.
