Staub Cast Iron Cocotte

🌿 CLEAN & SAFE

Slow cooking, braising, and roasting with self-basting lid

Materials

  • Cast iron
  • Matte black enamel interior
  • Colored enamel exterior

Common claims

  • Self-basting spikes
  • Made in France
  • Oven safe to 900°F

Concerns / watch-outs

  • Matte black interior enamel is different from Le Creuset's lighter interior — both are food-safe
