STAUB La Cocotte 8.4 L Cast Iron Round Cocotte, Black

Cocottes were invented in France many years ago and are traditional casserole dishes, ideal for making French specialties such as beef bourguignon or coq au vin. They can be used to effortlessly prepare a wide range of delicious French casseroles, as well as tasty goulash or hearty German stews. This round cocotte is made from enamelled cast iron, a material that is particularly effective for stewing and roasting, and which also intensifies the natural flavour of meat, vegetables and other ingredients. The matte black enamel on the cocotte interior distributes heat evenly throughout the dish, right up to the rim, so that each ingredient is cooked at the same speed. The combination of cast iron and enamel also cooks food slowly and steadily retaining its nutritional and vitamin content. The black Staub cocotte has a diameter of 30 cm and is 19 cm high including lid and with a capacity of 8.35 L, is perfect for catering for large parties such as family gatherings. This La Cocotte roasting pan is not restricted to making delicious casseroles: it can also be used for presenting food to your guests.
