The cocotte, a traditional French cooking vessel, has been used and loved for centuries by Michelin-starred chefs and gourmets alike. But it also fully meets the demands of modern cooking: vitamins and flavors are preserved, very little fat is needed, and healthy dishes can be prepared with minimal effort. Like all STAUB cocottes, it is made of cast iron and coated on the inside with black enamel, which not only improves its cooking performance but also makes it easier to handle. The material distributes heat evenly, keeping energy consumption very low. If you serve the dish in the cocotte afterward, it stays hot for a particularly long time. Let the color inspire you and give your roast chicken an extravagant touch by slipping some shaved truffle under the skin before putting it in the oven. Hand-washing recommended.
