Reston Lloyd Eurita Clay 4 Qt Roaster with Lid
We love clay cookware for its special way of making food delectably moist by circulating steam and the material’s ability to absorb and redistribute flavor, and this one works exceptionally. It’s a close cousin of the popular Romertopf clay cooker, but has a few unique features that set it apart. The lid—which is decorated with a whimsical kitchen-themed motif—is meant to be soaked in water before use as to release steam as your food cooks, resulting in a much more tender texture. This adds even more moisture to meats and also makes this a suitable vessel for baking bread. Plus, the bottom portion of the vessel is coated with glass frit glaze for easy cleanup. Dare we say this is better than a Dutch oven?
