My First Pot Experience
When I first saw Chef Symon advertising this line the word "sear" got my attention. I admit to being a bit of a cooking purist - don't say sear unless you mean it.
This line is revolutionary - the sear is as fine as any in cast iron, AND you can clean it simply!? I was so in love with this piece that I started reaching for it every day...browning onions and other aromatics, searing and braising roasts, even making foolproof ice cream custards....whatever!
I'm not sure that every home cook will realize the true potential of Unison - does everyone know what searing is and when to use it?
The other thing about this small Dutch oven is that although the sides are not low, the quality of the sear and the pot itself makes it possible to use it for browning as you might use a skillet, and the ability to brown and braise in oven or on cooktop makes it a cost-effective addition to any kitchen arsenal.....I have made roux and gravies in this one pot and turned cheap cuts of meat into luscious, delish and fork tender entrees and seafood into every gumbo, paella and cioppino imaginable. I think this is a great starter piece , as well as a practical addition to ANY batterie de cuisine!

Love It!
Bought this dutch oven a few months ago and it has begun to be the first pot I go for when cooking. Whether it's making sauces, browning roasts or even boiling corn on the cob. Love the new shape! Easy to clean. I, also have the 8 quart for my husband to make his famous spaghetti sauce. He loves his pot, too.

this Unison Dutch Oven Is Fabulous!
Bought this 5 quart SEAR unison to try out before buying the 8 piece set. Gives a fabulous sear yet nothing sticks. Sears so well and even made dark brown gravy from the drippings....no more cast iron skillets to scrub here! You can cook so many different types of dishes in this pot. Try this and you will love it!
