Actually, there are some of the potbelly, bendad types that are designed for cooking with, but all too many are not.And the style of dutch oven I like for cauldron impersonations is simply a modern cauldron - on 3 legs, with a lipped lid, suitable for cooking in coals - the main difference is that it's a little bit easier to clean because of the straight sides. When bought in the absurdly large sizes, they're called sugaring kettles.What I like for general use, though, is my big ol' mixing bowl (this is a technical term - smaller than a bread mixing bowl, but larger than my mixing bowl for brownies.) I've moved to the city, but my kitchen still is geared a little to the country, which is why my linen closet has a shelf dedicated to being part of my pantry. (Mostly my medicinals, but still...)
