STAUB La Cocotte 8.4 L Cast Iron Round Cocotte, Black

The Staub cocotte is unsurpassed for slow-cooking meats and vegetables to tender perfection and for simmering hearty stews and soups. Cast iron possesses exceptional heat-retaining qualities, so the pot heats evenly throughout. The innovative lid features tiny spikes on the interior that continually release condensed liquid back onto the food, yielding moist, flavorful results. Staub's special matte black enamel interior and self-basting spiked lid guarantee perfect browning and braising for flavor-enhanced food. Cocottes were invented in France many years ago and are ideal for making French specialties such as beef bourguignon or coq au vin, as well as tasty goulash or hearty German stews. Made from enameled cast iron, the cocotte intensifies the natural flavor of ingredients and distributes heat evenly. The combination of cast iron and enamel cooks food slowly, retaining its nutritional content. Staub's exquisite enamel finish allows each piece to transition beautifully from the kitchen to the table. Built to last a lifetime, these heirloom pieces can be passed from generation to generation.
