The Cast Iron way to Cook by Sue Cutts is an excellent investment for those that enjoy or want to learn about cooking with Le Creuset cast iron. The book is full of recipes accompanied with step by step instructions and tantalizing images. Besides providing recipes, this book explains the purpose, and care for each pan. The recipes are divided into sections based on which pans to use.
While the recipes alone are a worthy reason for purchasing this book, understanding how to use and care for your pans is an equally good reason. The latter may even help save money. Proper care for your Le Creuset will help it last a lifetime. Once understanding a pan may perform the same function of another, your purchase decisions will help you choose the pans you really need. For example, the buffet casseroles can also be used like a skillet in addition to preparing casseroles. Once you own a buffet casserole (one of my favorite Le Creuset pieces) buying the skillet may no longer be necessary.
PROS:
Full of recipes
Explains the purpose, and care for each pan
Can help save you money
CONS:
I didn't buy this book soon enough

Besides providing great recipes (recipes are arranged according to individual pieces i.e. French Ovens, Buffet Casseroles etc.) it also contains valuable "use and care" tips. Thanks to this book, I now have a greater understanding and appreciation of the versatility and function of the different pieces.
The Lemon Chicken Gratine recipe is wonderful!! Can't wait to try more!
My only regret is that I wish I had seen this book prior to my first Le Creuset purchase. However, since receiving this book as a present I've added several more Le Creuset pieces to my collection. :p
