Is the Staub Oval Cocotte worth it over a round Dutch oven?

If you cook whole chickens, roasts or long cuts, the oval shape fits them better than a round pot. For stews and braises alone, a round cocotte does the same job.

How does it compare with Le Creuset?

Both are enameled cast iron with similar heat retention. Staub's black interior hides stains and its lid has basting spikes, while Le Creuset's lighter interior makes it easier to watch browning.

Can it go on induction and in the oven?

Yes. It works on all hob types including induction and is oven safe up to 500°F with the lid on.

Is it dishwasher safe?

Staub lists it as dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended to protect the enamel and keep the finish looking new.

What sizes does the oval cocotte come in?

It is sold in several capacities, from small pots for two to large ones for a crowd. Check the capacity you need for whole birds or large roasts.

The cocotte and its matching cast-iron lid. No trivet or other accessories are included.
