Even if you don't make Bouillabaisse get this pot for its pretty size and shape! As will all Staub pieces this pot will give you superior browning on the matte black interior and provide even heating for whatever you are cooking. This one also has generous handels that are comfortable to use when handling. Oven safe and beautiful on your table you can choose this pot for any soups, stews baked pastas or roasts.
I bought this for my fish stews and mussels, but am using it for so much more! Cooks evenly with a lot of room for family meals. I love the top fish knob, too and bought one more so I can switch them out! Fun pot to leave on the stove-top.
The fish knob is super cute and looks great on this beautifully shaped pot, but that just scratches the surface of what this pot can do. The large exposed surface on this pot is perfect for Bouilabaisse but also works great for paella or chicken marsala or au gratin potatoes....you get the idea!
A striking cast iron design topped w/ a fish knob!

Recently, I had a customer who instantly fell in love with these exact item 5-qt Bouillabaisse Pot. She said, she bought a 4qt. last holiday and can't believe how great her dish turns out. And this is why she came back again to add more Staub collections. She grabbed a fish plate I suggested and a 7qt. cocotte in grenadine color. The innovative lid features tiny spikes on the interior that continually release condensed liquid back onto the food, yielding moist, flavorful results.
Our family loves cioppino and I have found the perfect pan. We can add all the shellfish we would like and it cooks evenly. This pans retains heat like no other so no problem putting in cold item into hot pan, the temp remains the same. You can use it for anything not just bouillabaisse.
This is great for making paella, risotto and of course bouillabaisse. Gorgeous blue color. i love stewing fish and making chowders in this pot! The shape is stunning and the handles are ample to grab with pot holders.
Decorative fish knob combined with multi purpose use of this pot make it a keeper. In addition to bouillabaisse, this piece is perfect for braising and sauteing. Depth makes it ideal for casseroles as well. Like all Staub items, it goes from table or oven to table for serving.
