This large 30 cm STAUB cocotte is one of the most iconic cast iron pieces in professional and home kitchens. With an 8.35 litre capacity, it is ideal for slow cooked dishes, large family meals or anything that needs steady heat and long simmering. The cast iron body distributes heat evenly, so meat becomes tender, vegetables keep their structure and sauces develop more depth.

The lid design is one of STAUB’s signature features. The inside has small raised points that help moisture fall back onto the food during cooking. This creates a self basting effect that keeps everything juicy without constantly opening the pot. The result is fuller flavour, softer textures and rich sauces.

The interior enamel is matte black, extremely durable and known for improving over time. It allows strong searing, gives a natural non stick effect after seasoning and is resistant to scratches and acids. Whether you are browning meat, baking bread or preparing stews, this cocotte handles high temperatures while keeping consistency in heat.

STAUB cocottes are handmade in France. Because of the heavy cast iron and thick enamel layers, each piece holds heat for a long time, both hot and cold. You can serve directly on the table and the food stays warm much longer than in stainless steel or aluminium cookware. The ergonomic handles make lifting easier and the metal knob is oven safe up to 250°C.

Many cooks consider this a lifetime investment piece. It works on induction, gas and electric stovetops, and also in the oven. The size is perfect for big meal prep, roasts, soups or sourdough baking. If you want a premium pot that performs, looks good and will not lose quality over the years, this cocotte is one of the top choices.
