Staub Oval Cocotte / Basil

The Staub enamelled cast iron oval cocotte is nothing short of iconic. Suitable for all hobs including induction, this versatile piece retains heat and moisture beautifully. It is perfect to take from oven to table. 

---DETAILS---

Made in France, Staub cookware is loved by professional chefs and home cooks alike. This cocotte is made of thick cast iron – a hard-wearing material capable of retaining high levels of heat, which allows for excellent browning and steam retention. Cast iron is also very versatile, suitable for all hobs including induction, the oven, and the barbecue. Unlike traditional cast iron pans, which require regular seasoning and maintenance, Staub cast iron cookware is enamelled, meaning no additional care is needed – you can use regular washing-up liquid to clean it. The enamel has been sprayed on in three layers rather than bonded, which makes it more durable than other enamelled cast iron pans, and it has a slightly textured finish. Translation: better, more consistent browning and easier clean-up. The patented lid has bumps that collect condensation and make it 'rain' back into your food, creating a self-basting effect that retains moisture exceptionally well. Designed to be passed down generations, this cocotte can withstand decades or more of heavy use. The oval shape is ideal for roasting meat or poultry, as well as for baking loaves of bread. 

---BENEFITS---

'When you use a Staub cocotte, you know at once there's nothing quite like it, from the way it keeps food warm (long after you move it to the table) to how easily it cleans up. After years of use it is still in perfect condition. The oval cocotte is my go-to for dinner parties and homemade bread.'
