STAUB 9-qt Cast Iron Dutch Oven, Serves 9-10, Black Matte

The Staub cocotte is unparalleled for slow-cooking meats and vegetables to tender perfection, as well as for simmering hearty stews and soups. Cast iron possesses exceptional heat-retaining qualities, allowing the pot to heat evenly throughout. The innovative lid features tiny spikes on the interior that continuously release condensed liquid back onto the food, yielding moist results. With their exquisite enamel finish, each piece transitions seamlessly from the kitchen to the table. From comfort food to sumptuous suppers, every dish becomes exceptional when served in Staub.

Staub enameled cast iron cookware is the preferred choice of the world's top chefs. Boasting exceptional durability, it is perfect for daily use in both gourmet home kitchens and prestigious restaurants around the globe. Designed to last a lifetime, these heirloom pieces can be passed down from generation to generation.

Crafted in France, these heavy-duty, tight-fitting lids effectively retain moisture, thanks to the spikes that create a rain-forest-like effect, gently returning juices back onto the food. The cookware is oven-safe up to 900°F/482°C without the lid, while the lids themselves are oven-safe up to 500°F/260°C. The nickel steel knob adds a touch of elegance.

The smooth enamel bottom ensures compatibility with all stovetops, including gas, electric, glass-ceramic, induction, and halogen. The unique interior matte texture results in exceptional browning, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of culinary creations. For easy cleaning, these pieces are dishwasher-safe, although hand-washing is recommended.

Like all enameled cast iron cookware, Staub's handcrafted pieces are fired upside-down in a kiln. To ensure thorough enameling, they are rotated with each coat, which may result in minor color variations where the rim rested on the rack.
