Description
Discover the culinary versatility and timeless elegance of the Staub 4 QT Round Cocotte in Eucalyptus, a classic French casserole dish known for its exceptional cooking performance and stylish design. Originally crafted in France, the cocotte was traditionally used for cooking chicken dishes, earning its name "cocotte," which translates to "little hen" in French. Over time, it has become indispensable for a wide range of dishes including soups, stews, and gratins, favored by both home cooks and professional chefs alike. This cocotte features a sleek Eucalyptus color that adds a touch of sophistication to any dining table presentation. Made from durable cast iron, it excels in heat retention and even heat distribution, enhanced by Staub's special matte black enamel interior. This enamel not only ensures excellent browning and flavor preservation but also makes the cocotte suitable for all types of hobs, including induction, and oven-safe up to 900°F without the lid. The cocotte's tight-fitting lid with spikes creates a "rain-forest effect," evenly distributing moisture and juices back onto the food for succulent results. Its nickel steel knob and smooth enamel bottom further enhance its functionality, allowing for exceptional performance on various stovetops and ease of cleaning.
