The Staub Essential French Oven is a 5.25-quart enameled cast iron pot with a wide, shallow shape and a glass lid. The black matte enamel interior needs no seasoning, resists acidic foods, and builds a natural non-stick surface with use. It moves from oven to table and suits slow-cooked stews, braises, and one-pot meals for two to four people. Against round Dutch ovens of similar capacity, its wider base gives more browning surface and easier access for stirring and serving.

Owners of Staub enameled cast iron generally praise even heat, the no-seasoning matte interior, and long-term durability. Many note the weight and the care needed to avoid chipping.
The Staub Essential French Oven is a 5.25-qt enameled cast iron pot made in France. It has high, sloped sides that make it easy to reach every corner, stir stews and circulate heat. The deep, curved shape suits simmering soups, braising short ribs, baking no-knead bread, reducing sauces, stir frying and one-pot dishes.
The pot is made from cast iron in a one-use sand mold and is enameled inside and out. The enamel is chip-resistant. Because of this process, subtle differences can appear from piece to piece, and they are not defects. The black matte interior needs no seasoning and does not react to acidic foods. It browns food well and retains and distributes heat. With use, cooking oils soak into the matte enamel and form a natural, smooth non-stick surface.
The heavy, tight-fitting lid seals in moisture and flavor. Spikes on the underside of the lid return juices onto the food in a self-basting, rain-forest effect. The smooth enamel bottom works on all heat sources. The pot goes from oven to table, so you can cook and serve in the same dish.
