Help With Dutch Oven?

Last night my boyfriend and I bought a non stick Dutch oven at Stop & Shop. I read the directions and washed it with hot, soapy water and cleaned it before I started to cook. I made homemade black bean soup that's quick and easy, all you need to do is add the ingredients together and heat it up. You do have to bring it to a boil, but you don't leave it boiling for long. 

 

While I was cooking it, I got a whiff of a nasty odor (similar to what a new oven smells like when you use it for the first time) I didn't think much of it...I was hoping the odor wouldn't leech into the soup. It did. We have rinsed and re-washed it multiple times - we've also tried boiling water in it to get rid of the smell. I googled some suggestions online, but I couldn't find any tips for a nonstick Dutch Oven, just cast iron.

 

I'm not sure what to do, should we just return it?

I would return it.  Usually a good washing or 2 will take care of the coating or dirt.  Certainly washing and cooking something should have fixed it.

I was afraid of that. I do hope they take it back...we just bought it yesterday and we have the receipt/packaging for it. The bottom is now slightly scratched...not sure how as we used a sponge to wash it but didn't scrape at it. Ugh. 

 

I'm trying to look for stainless steel pots or possibly glass...but I can't seem to find glass pots anywhere and stainless steel is super expensive. This is ridiculous. I might look into Aluminum as well. We are thinking about looking at Kmart while we're out returning the dutch oven (assuming they take it back - -  :unsure: )

 

My boyfriend's mother did give him some glass pots, can I use those if I just wash them thoroughly or should they be put through the dishwasher first? All this because I want some soup. :( They actually might be more like skillets, I'll have to double check.

I would return it. Get a cast iron, porcelain one. I have a Lodge. They have been making cast iron pans in TN forever! You can find them at Marshall's (or similar store). Can go right into the oven. Cheaper than a Le Creuset Dutch oven. It will last you a lifetime.

 I am not sure what you mean by a "glass" pot?  They are glass baking dishes but they will break on the stovetop.

My SIL had a set back in the 90's and they cooked horribly! It may be one reason you do not find them around anymore. But in a pinch, you can use them if they have been passed on to you. Clean them well. Enjoy your soup!

Kareng, here is what I meant by "glass pots" - I don't know what the brand is or what they are used for specifically, but my bf claims his mother used them on the stove. These look exactly like the ones she gave us:

Cyclinglady - Thanks for the tips! We did return it, thankfully they took it back and we got a refund. We grabbed a 14 piece stainless steel set that came with a dutch oven for about $35.00 from Kmart - it will work for now. I tried making the soup again and it was much better, lol. Maybe I will eventually upgrade. I want so many cooking appliances - once I can eat more foods I can't wait to get a quesadilla maker! Lol.

Those look like Corning glass cookware to me.  I have some also but more of a pinkish red color.  They work fine on the stove top.  Fairly easy to clean also, for most things.  I think both Sears and Kmart sell Corningware.  But lots of places sell it.

Yup! My bf confirmed they were corningware. If they can be cleaned well and used for gluten free cooking, then I will definitely hold on to them. That's a big help. I wasn't really sure. She gave us a bunch of them. I'm still glad I got a cheap Dutch Oven though, one that doesn't make the soup smell/taste awful :( Yeesh.

Yup, that's Corning glass cookware as I see it. Good stuff, and if you wash it there will be no worries. Stove top, oven, or microwave--all work with it. Just avoid sudden extreme temperature shifts, like out of the freezer into a preheated oven.

Thanks everyone! That is a big help. We just put a few in the dishwasher. I can't wait to cook with them! Phew. Definitely a money saver :)

Ok. I have seen those a few ( or more) years back. Lol. What Peter said about the sudden temperature change. They are glass. Glass isn't porous. They will clean up well And the price is right.

They may heat up a bit faster than regular pans so I would start on lower stovetop temps.

Great! I just wasn't sure if handwashing them was okay or if they should be put through the dishwasher first. Normally I would just throw them in the dishwasher regardless (which is what we ended up doing) but I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to find something else to cook my soup in, and we try to only run the dishwasher when it gets full, instead of running it a few times a week. 

 

Thanks everyone! :) I still can't believe that Dutch oven...blech.

      Safe and Forbidden lists

      By Julie Max · Posted

      As far as I know, miso paste is gluten-free and should be added to the Safe List.  And, shouldn't soy sauce be on the Forbidden list?

      @PlanetJanet, Sorry to hear about your back pain.  I have three crushed vertebrae myself.  I found that a combination of Thiamine, Cobalamin and Pyridoxine (all water soluble B vitamins) work effectively for my back pain.  This combination really works without the side effects of prescription and over-the-counter pain meds.  I hope you will give them a try. Here are articles on these vitamins and pain relief...

      Canned tomato sauce, ricotta?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Here is the info from their website. If you don't trust them, you may find products that are labelled "gluten-free," but I don't see any reason to believe there is any gluten in them.

      Hi, trents, Thanks for responding! One book I read is called, Doing Harm, by Maya Dusenbery.  She has wonderful perspective and insight, and it's all research-based.  It's about how women can't get treated.  Everyone should read this!  I wouldn't mind reading it again, even.  She believes that women are so busy taking care of families, working, etc., that we are more likely to ignore our pain and symptoms for longer.  Men have women bugging them to go to the doctor.  Women don't have anyone telling us that.  We don't have time to go.  Providers think we are over-emotional, histrionic, depressed, have low tolerance to pain...Men get prescribed opioids for the same symptoms women are prescribed anti-depressants.  My car crash in January 2020 made going to the doctor a full-time job.  I grew up with 2 rough and tumble brothers, played outside, climbed trees.  I was tough and strong, pain didn't bother me, I knew it would heal.  But do you think I could get treated for back pain--as a woman?  I am so familiar now with the brush-offs, the blank looks, the, "Take your Ibuprofen," the insinuation that I am just over-reacting, trying to get attention, or even, "Drug Seeking."  Took almost 2 years, but what was happening was Degenerative Sacroiliitis.  I couldn't walk right, my gait was off, effected my entire spine because gait was off.  I had braced myself with my legs in a front-impact, slightly head-on crash with someone who made a left turn in front of me from the opposite direction.  I finally had SI Joint Fusion surgery, both sides.  It's not a cure. I have given up on trying to get properly treated.  There is so much pain with these spine issues caused by bad gait:  scoliosis, lithesis, arthropathy, bulged disc, Tarlov cysts.  And I can't take anything because of my bad tummy. Not that I would ever hurt anyone, but I can relate to Luis Mangione who couldn't get treated for his back injury. I feel so alone.
