Bright Enamelware for a Rainy Day

We have tropical storm Hermine visiting us in Central Texas today, and we are very grateful for the abundance of rain. However, when it is dark and gloomy like this it does make me crave a bit of light and color. So when I was looking around the warehouse and saw a big brown box marked "enamelware" this morning, I got quite excited. And here's what I found.

It's a motley bunch of various ideas of enameled cookware. The blue bowl is a lovely large salad bowl by Catherinholme of Norway. The dark green is a wonderful Dansk Paella pan (sold but looking for more!) and in case you don't have one, here is a good recipe for that wonderful Spanish dish (leaving out the snails!). The yellow pan at the base of my leaning tower is shaped liked a wok and would be an easy pan for a simple stir-fry. I have also included a couple of saucepans made in Japan with a playful floral design. Not strictly enamelware (not enamelware at all actually), they just happened to fit with the look I was going for in this picture.

Also found and listed at So Dishy were these 2 Le Creuset sauce pans (sold, but keeping our eyes peeled for more.) The difference here is that they are only enamelled on the outside, it's teflon on the inside. The colorful pot on top is an enamelware covered dish I would use for green beans or fruit salad, or to serve hot scones with butter (that sounds pretty good right now!)

All these dishes are available to bring some light into your next rainy day. Browse our entire store and buy here.

The rain is still falling as strongly as it was when I started working this morning. And after spending all day with these lovely pieces bringing some color into my day as I prepared them for their close ups, I don't mind one bit.
