You may know it as a cocotte or Dutch oven, but we call this multitalented 4-quart number a one-pot cooker, bread baker, and tender stew-maker. A beloved French kitchen mainstay, it's got classic lines that look right at home in the center of the dinner table and a design that’s made to stand the test of time. (There’s a reason your grandma’s still got hers.) Built from chip-resistant enameled cast iron, it retains heat long after it’s left the oven or stovetop. As for browning? It’s a born champ, making for more flavorful soups and roasts. Use it on any type of heating surface from the get-go—yep, even induction—no seasoning required. Bonus: The glass lid gives you front-row views and is oven safe up to 500°F while keeping all those flavors inside to work their magic. And we haven't even gotten to the colors! In a parade of options from the show-stealing to the match-everything, there's an option for everyone. Extremely versatile—great for braising, browning, baking, searing, stewing, boiling, deep-frying and more.. Interior black-matte surface is resistant to rust, chipping and cracking and (cue applause!) does not require additional seasoning.. Tempered borosilicate glass lid lets you monitor the cooking process.. Traces of quartz on enameled interior provide additional heat resistance and create a textured surface for A+ browning every time.. Compatible with all heat sources, including induction.. Thick walls retain heat to help keep food warm until ready to serve.. Moves easily to the table for a head-turning presentation..

The French oven is a timeless standby for stews, roasts, soups, casseroles and other one-pot classics. Staub has perfected this tradition in our signature La Cocotte French Oven, the choice of some of the worlds best chefs. The traditional round design has self-basting spikes for continuous, natural basting. When your meal is ready, La Cocotte moves beautifully from the stove to your table.

The 5-quart Tall Cocotte is a taller version of the classic 4-quart cocotte, making it the ideal tool for cooking larger quantities, without taking up valuable stovetop space. The additional height is especially useful in cooking bone-in meat cuts like crown roasts as well as layered dishes like tians, or dishes that rise, such as soufflŽ. Plus, the added height reduces the risk of liquids boiling over and reduces splatter when deep-FRYINGing or searing.
