IMUSA USA 0.7Qt Traditional Colombian Mini Caldero (Dutch Oven) for Cooking and Serving, 0.7 Quart, Silver

This pot seems pretty small from the description, but for single person (or side dish) cooking, it's the smart-bomb of dutch ovens. Overall size (including handles) is a hair over 7.5", the inside diameter of the pot itself is just under 5-3/8". It will easily cook 1/4 cup of Basmati rice (150 calories) with room to spare for some chopped up vegetables or meat. It will fit 3 large eggs (210 calories). I measured the liquid volume to the rim and it came out to just over 600ml or about 21 ounces, which if you think about it, is the majority of a standard wine bottle (750ml). The lid fits very well, and the knob on top remains cool to the touch when used over a burner. It will fit into an 8" dutch oven, which means you can "double bake" by placing a spacer underneath the aluminum caldera. It can go directly from stove/oven to the kitchen table on a hot pad, although I recommend using a lexan spoon so you're not scraping into the aluminum. Used with adequate oil/butter it does not stick if the temperatures are kept down. It has become a "go to" pot in my kitchen for convenience and function. It also is useful to establish "portion control" for those of us who wish to reduce our calorie intake. Great item!

I have used this type of pan for years for rice. Before I would usually make to much. As I hate leftovers, this is just the right size for one.

Cocino media taza de arroz solo para mi. Ideal para solteros que no queremos cocinar mucho.

The pot is small and was a gift for my mother. Not the greatest quality, but good for the price. My mother uses it for heating s single serving of soup or rice. It serves it's purpose.

Linda, fácil de utilizar y además cuando hago algo allí, pues sale espectacular.

Right sized for two people BUT they could have done a much better job at smoothing the edges. Had to use a nail filer to smooth sharp edges (not a joke) … buying a 1 Q Saucepan with Ceramic coating is a better way to go. Keeping it and Rated it a 3

This works to roast garlic, however, upon first use it stains horribly and doesn’t come clean. Also, and most importantly, the edges all the way around the lid and the pot are incredibly sharp and will very easily cut hands and fingers when washing or using. Please be careful. They really need to sand these edges down before selling.

I just got my mini calderas and was delighted that they were as advertised. They are very well made and reminded me of what manufacturing used to produce here in the USA. I purchased them to make yeast raised cornbread bowls for chili. But I can see multiple uses for them in the future. My only complaint is that I was limited to 3 caldera and since I planned on using them for 2 couples I had to separately purchase a forth crock from another seller. Otherwise I am very happy with my purchase and the prompt shipping.
