This is a great "multi" pot. So many recipes can be made in this dish. Not only will they turn out perfectly but will look beautiful served from the stove or oven.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love making chicken and dumpling dishes in this, but it does so much more! Rice and meats w/ veggies also cook well and the moisture stays locked in due to the self-basting dots! I also steam mussels and in no time, finished! All-around versatile braiser.

Another great pan from Staub

These braiser cast iron is shallow but wide, so easy to incorporate ingredients in one pot. It is great for braising, roasting, frying, stir fry, baking breads and more. Staub cast iron works on all stove top sources including gas, electric, glass, ceramic, induction, and halogen. The heavy weight, tight-fitting lid retains moisture, spikes on the lid create a self basting environment returning juices back onto food. Oven safe up to 900F.

this is my everything pan..I braise, saute, fry and sear in it. I love the shape and the slightly upswung handles make it so easy to maneuver. The lid is nice and heavy when I want to braise it fits tightly and the sides are a perfect depth.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This braiser works so beautifully. I love to use it for braising beef! The braising lid works so well to keep the food moist.

Nice, Wide Braiser

Lots of seering/braising space. Easier to move larger handles. Beautiful enameled deep blue top and bottom. Nobs beneath lid continually moisturize food when covered.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great for cooking and presenting

I love using this pot because it has a very wide bottom so that I can brown a lot of meat all at the same time and the fact that it is cast iron, the pot heats evenly and retains heat for a long time. Unlike other cast iron, this is enameled so that it is easy to clean without a lot of extra special care. The lid also makes it so that if I ever put this in the oven, the condensation that collects on the lid is evenly distributed due to nubs.
I would recommend this to a friend!

One of the most beautiful IMHO

I think this braiser in any color, but this deep blue in particular, is one the most brilliant pieces in the Staub collection. The shape of the braiser - with the cast iron domed lid - and the side handles makes for such an elegant presentation of even the most humblest foods. If you, like me, make a fair amount of one pot, stew-y, curry-ie, simmer-y vegetables and meats, or elevated rice dishes, then this is a cooking vessel for you.
It will easily become a go to pot. And even without the lid, the bottom becomes a great roaster, or round baker. So many uses.
For me, a great deal of the enjoyment is the rich blue color. It comes from a special Majolica process that involves 3 layers of enamel. I know all their products perform at the highest standards, and that they last a lifetime, but its the colors that make Staub stand apart.
