I love how this pot has a really wide bottom so that I can brown a lot of meat at once, so I don't have to do as many batches. The knob is such a cute fish and it also is very functional because I feel like I can grab is easily. The handles on this pot are also very easy to grab.
A seafood stew by any name cooks great in this pot

And it looks good too. The rich deep blue even looks like the sea. But what fun when you bring the soup or stew to the table, grab the fish, lift the lid to a delicious mix of seafood and broth. Can you image anything better?
The heavy gauge cast iron of this pot can take the heat and cook everything so well. Clean up and maintenance is easy - just wash, dry, repeat.
The shape of this pot is so nice. It makes great stews and the dark blue is so pretty and clean looking! Plus, who doesn't like a fish knob? SO unique!
This is a great fish stew pot. IT is deep enough to hold plenty of liquid but not to lose those lovely pieces of shellfish to complete drowning. It is a perfect pot to serve from as well. I do enjoy the staub animal knobs and this fish is no exception.
This piece is a great presentation piece for bouillabaisse, but can be used for other dishes as well. I also use it to make risottos, sauces, casseroles. It is a versitile size and I especially like the shape of the bottom for sauces. Beautiful piece and goes from stove/oven to the table with pizazz
It is the perfect bouillabaisse or ciopino pot as the fish knob signifies. But you shouldn't let that deter you if you love the looks but don't cook these dishes. The wide bottom and black enamaling browns nicely making it perfect for au gratin potatoes, cobblers or one pot meals. The extra deep handlles make moving it around a piece of cake!
