The Staub 7 qt round cocotte is an enameled cast iron Dutch oven made in France. It is used for slow-cooking meats and vegetables and for simmering stews and soups. Cast iron holds heat well, so the pot heats evenly throughout.
The heavy, tight-fitting lid keeps moisture in. Small spikes on the underside of the lid collect condensation and return it evenly onto the food, which creates a rain-forest effect. The interior has a matte black enamel finish with a texture that helps food brown.
The smooth enamel bottom works on all stovetops, including gas, electric, glass, ceramic, induction and halogen. The enamel finish lets the pot go from the kitchen to the table. It is dishwasher safe, though hand washing is recommended.
