This oval Dutch oven (cocotte) is made of enameled cast iron. Its shape suits braising whole roasts and baking whole chicken or duck. It can also be used for slow-cooking meat and vegetables and for simmering stews and soups.
Enameled cast iron needs no seasoning and retains heat, so the pot heats evenly. The textured black matte enamel interior is made for browning and for heat retention and distribution. The smooth enamel bottom works on all stovetops, including induction.
The heavy, tight-fitting lid retains moisture. Small bumps on the underside of the lid return juices evenly onto the food. The pot goes from oven to table, so you can cook and serve in the same dish.
