Ha! I got my own Le Creuset yesterday afternoon! Same thing (7-1/4
qt?) only blue.

I've got dough rising to make the NKB, which is why I bought the pot
after resisting for many years. I hate heavy cookware, but sometimes
it's necessary.

I stayed at a friend's in North Carolina last month and she had the
same pot. I'd been itching to try the recipe and despite her
misgivings about heating it to such a high temp, she let me make the
bread (bless her!) and we were richly rewarded with a wonderful loaf
which crackled and popped when we took it out of the oven.

I hope I can duplicate it and it wasn't just beginner's luck.

That's what I'm doing with mine.
