[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Staub makes great cast. Great even heat retention and you have to love the easy maintenance finish. While not necessary, I like to use a lard stick after a wash with a quick pass and wipe down. This is the companion to the Staub Dutch I bought years ago and still looks new. Now to figure out what to cook tonight.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pan is beautiful! It is just the right size. It is solid but balance and and does not see heavy when lifting. Super versatile too! I look forward to the many delicious meals this pan will serve to my family.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] That should tell you how I feel about this pan! Frying in this pan is such a delight! Food turns out moist, tender and cooked to perfection! This can be your everyday pan. You can fry chicken, fish, steaks! You can roast beef, pork, bake a ham...anything!! Spaghetti sauce, scalloped potatoes, the list goes on! Before using this pan, make sure you wash and season it with oil, with your stove temperature on a low setting. I only do this for a few minutes, then I wipe out the excess oil and it’s ready to go. If you’re frying, I find it best to cook your food in a heated pan that’s set on a lower temperature, and I adjust the temperature up or down, if need be. Don’t try to turn your food over too quickly. If your food is sticking to the pan, the pan should release your food on its own and that’s when you should turn your food over. I know that some people do, but I don’t use metal utensils in my cookware, nor do I put any of them in the dishwasher! I find that cleaning my Staub pan is easy peasy. Just follow the instructions that come with your booklet and you should be good to go. I’m not a great cook, but I learned some of these trick by watching others on you tube or by trial and error!
Staub makes a wonderful product and this beautiful dark blue braiser is no exception. I have a variety of pieces and I love them all! Happy cooking everyone!
