Caraway 6 Qt Non-Stick Ceramic-Coated Rondeau Pot

The Caraway rondeau is a wide, straight-walled 6-quart pot with a lid. According to the listing it has a non-stick ceramic coating that is free from PFAS and other "forever chemicals", high straight sides for searing, braising and simmering, and two stainless steel handles that carry it from the stovetop to the oven to the table. Caraway says it cleans up with a gentle scrub and soap. It suits holiday one-pan meals such as braised chicken, pot roast or a big batch of greens.
