[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how mini it is and durable this pot is, I bought it and it was a great match for my kitchen.
I love all of my Staub pieces but I am OBSESSED with these minis. All of the benefits of full size Staub just in a smaller size. The enamel coating is inside and out keeping with the traditional matte interior. The braising spikes are still featured on the lid. These are full cooking versions but I like to use mine for serving and for holding my salt and pepper in the kitchen.
So cute and perfect for individual servings, savory or sweet. The piece can be used on any cooking surface up to 500F. Perfect for broiling cheese on French onion soup. I even use this pan to serve sauces or condiments during meal time.
I have quite a few of the mini cocottes for individual servings at the table and for putting out with dips and crudite for backyard BBQs/family gatherings. Cold dips stay cold and warm dips stay in the cast iron. I like to mix and match colors for a festive look and feel.
This is an awesome mini round cocotte. It is a great dipping dish, single serve ice cream bowl, holder for cream, etc. The white truffle color is really pretty and goes well with any occasion.
I made little individual shuffles in these for a dinner party. Looked very "French" and they came out perfectly right from the oven. Great French made quality.
I could use this to bake and serve dessert in. I could also use this to roast a tomato with my special topping, or to make an individual fondue portion. I have on one occasion made truffled potatoes. But right now,they are holding salts and paperclips. I just like to enjoy them as they are. The brilliant enameled Majolica finished colors add a bit of color to my very neutral environment so they are out where I can enjoy them. Plus they are all there when it's time for me to cook for a crowd.
Versatile cocotte for single service portions. I like making egg custard dishes- both creamy and savory. they are perfect for sugar , salt and spices on your counter. Everything you would expect from a Staub. Even heating, heat retention and easy clean up! Beautiful white color.
