LA COCOTTE – GRAY

Description

The cocotte originated in France, where this casserole was designed for cooking chicken dishes-in fact, the word “cocotte” itself is the French word for “chicken”. Since then the cocotte has been used to prepare a wide variety of other dishes including soups, stews and ragouts. Beginners can use them to try their hand at tasty baking dishes, and professional French chefs cannot do without them to make gratins or delicate soufflés. This particular cocotte is gray, a color that adds a touch of elegance when presenting food at the table. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, cast iron retains heat excellently and is able to distribute it evenly, characteristics that are enhanced by Staub’s special matte black enamel. This glaze also helps to preserve the unique flavor of the food. Because a cocotte retains heat well, meat and vegetables can be cooked gently, preserving both flavor and nutritional content. It is therefore the perfect tool for cooking healthy meals. The specially designed lid releases condensation at regular intervals, keeping the meat wonderfully succulent. With the Staub cocotte you can offer yourself and your guests tender meat and delicious vegetables at any time.
