Perfect Performer
on April 19, 2020
Posted by: Lars Reich
ice size...large, but not too large. Great roaster but will also saute and brown without too much of a mess. The deep blue color enameling is attractive. Nobs on lid keep moisture directly over food.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Does Everything You Can Think Of

Frequency of use:Daily
This cocotte is my go to piece of cookware. I use it for everything, so much so it stays on my stove top day in and day out. The interior has Staub's impressive black matte finish and produces beautiful searing. The heating capability is like no other pan - even heat all through out the pan, even with a less than great stove top. My favorite thing to make is burgers in the pan, the walls are high enough so no mess from any grease. It also makes a mean round loaf of bread.

I love this size and I love this shape especially for roasting chickens. You have enough room to add your vegetables in with the chicken, which is a huge plus. The spikes under the lid collect moisture and self-baste the dish all while it is cooking, so almost like you have an extra hand! You get to take all the credit though!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the weight of this product and how it evenly distributes the heat throughout the entire cook.

Great for No Knead Bread
on August 10, 2020
Posted by: Cheffy
Love making no knead bread for my family, but wanted to double the recipe. Decided on this 5.5 cocotte and it is truly the perfect sized pan for doing that. My breads come out perfect. The metal knob on the lid is oven safe in high temperatures, which is perfect for the 500 degree temperature it cooks at with lid on. The lid also fits nice and tight, and creates just the correct amount of steam to produce a hard crust and moist and perfect crumb. Also great for Irish Stew which goes great with the bread.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best Dutch oven I've ever used.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is amazing!!! I use it almost every single day and it conducts heat so perfectly on the stove and in the oven. I have used it for stews, soups, braises, sauces, and have even stir-fried veggies. It is so durable and so useful in the kitchen. It's also very pretty and I don't even put it away I like to just leave it out on my stove top when I'm not using it. Would make a great gift for any loved one or friend.

Best cooking device ever
on December 16, 2020
Posted by: Christophe64
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Exceptional performance. I was stunned when I first started using it - everything cooked in the Staub was the best version of the dish that I'd ever prepared. When I realized that my cooking wasn't getting better, and that the difference was la cocotte by Staub, I became an instant and lifelong fan. Read the care instructions; low heat first, then raise the temperature. (I learn lessons the expensive way so you don't have to.)
I would recommend this to a friend!
