High-quality cast iron casserole with high-gloss enamel finish and gradient color. Suitable for all types of stoves, including induction. Cast iron has long been used for braising pots. Staub's special enamel enhances the existing properties of the material: cast iron absorbs heat from the stove very well and retains it for a long time. The heat is then released slowly and steadily. This not only allows for gentle cooking but also keeps the food warm in the Staub cocotte. Another advantage of the enamel is that it enhances the natural flavors of the food. Instead of overcooking the vegetables, they remain tasty and aromatic in the Staub cocotte, while meat becomes juicy and tender. Hand washing is recommended.
