Types of Oven
Dutch Ovens
The original Dutch ovens were three-legged cooking pots, typically made of either heavy cast iron or aluminium made to be used over an open fire or hearth. There are two basic types of Dutch ovens. The first is the outdoor variety made of cast iron, which has three short legs and a tight fitting lid. The second type is similar but has a flat base and can be used stove top or in your kitchen oven. Dutch ovens are extremely versatile and can be used for anything from roasting and stewing to frying, steaming and baking.
