My love affair with cookware would seem unreasonable to most. I, myself, cannot explain nor justify my serious addiction to French enamel cast iron or remember how it began. I go so far as to pause the television if I glance upon a Dutch oven on a stove and have to verify for myself if it is Le Creuset (I do the same when I see a bookshelf of cookbooks). Each time Le Creuset comes out with a new color it feels like the magic of Christmas and the agony of opening a perfectly wrapped gift and finding out that the gift is socks. It's a love/hate relationship as I want all the colors but I can't possibly own all the colors. A Facebook acquaintance recently questioned just how many Dutch ovens does one need? What a Marie Kondo/ridiculous thing to ask! It is not a matter of need but a matter of wanting. I take comfort in the fact that there are others who have this same affliction. In April 2020, Sara Dahmen has a book being released: Copper, Iron, and Clay: A Love Affair with Cookware. I think we could be great friends. Today, I am sharing a special 10th EYB birthday giveaway for Le Creuset's new color berry. This 4.5 quart beauty is the perfect size for soup, a small roast or any number of dishes. As I have said countless times this cookware will last a lifetime especially if you take good care of it (I do) and looks lovely on your dinner table. You never need to transfer a soup or stew from a piece of Le Creuset. Just bring the whole vessel to the table to serve and have less to clean! I am thrilled that Le Creuset has provided one of these Dutch ovens for EYB to giveaway to one of our members. As this is a special occasion, we can ship this item worldwide! See our giveaway below for more details. While grocery shopping today, I picked up a copy of Ruhlman's How to Roast: Foolproof Techniques and Recipes for the Home Cook to include in this giveaway! Ruhlman's titles are always spot on and I am looking forward to his latest From Scratch (October 2019).

Le Creuset has provided me with a gorgeous 4.5 quart Dutch oven in berry and I have purchased a copy of Michael Ruhlman's How to Roast for one EYB Member worldwide. One of the entry options is to answer the following question in the comments section of this blog post.
