Cherry Red Cast Iron Oval Cocotte - 31cm / 5.5L

Details

The Staub La Cocotte 5.5 L Cast Iron Oval Cocotte in Cherry is a timeless French classic designed for exceptional performance in the kitchen. Its spacious oval shape is ideal for braising whole roasts, baking chicken or duck, and slow cooking hearty meals to tender perfection. Like all Staub cocottes, it excels at even heat distribution and superior heat retention, producing deeply flavorful dishes with minimal effort.

The heavy weight tight fitting lid locks in moisture, while the self-basting interior lid bumps create a gentle rain forest effect, continuously returning juices onto the food for succulent results. The enameled cast iron interior requires no seasoning and features a matte black finish that produces remarkable browning and caramelization.

Rooted in French culinary heritage, Staub cookware is cherished by chefs and home cooks for its craftsmanship, durability and beauty. This cocotte transitions effortlessly from oven to table, delivering both performance and elegance.
