Staub Cocotte Round Dark Blue

This size cocotte is perfect for small jobs. It makes and or heats up soup, it steams, deep fries and we even cook steaks in it. The heat capability of the pan is amazing - heats up quickly and evenly, also stays hot for hours. It has self-basting spikes on the interior of the lid which collect and return all moisture back into dish - nothing dries out and the food stays moist. It sears beautifully when cooking any meat as well. Perfect caramelizatinon every time.

Needed a smaller sized cast iron cocotte to cook for my husband and myself. The 2.75 size is perfect. Has all the bells and whistles the larger Staub pieces have, but in a more compact size. Use almost daily, for everything from soups,to Cornish hens. Also perfect for no knead bread!

Love this french cocotte. The lid has a tight fit to retain moisture which also helps to keep your food tender and juicy. I have been amazed with Staub and how their design can bring out the natural flavors of food.

Treat this little dark blue cocotte similar to a saucepan as you boil water for pasta or warm up soup. The smaller size make this a little bit lighter and much easier to maneuver around and clean. You can still get all of the benefits of Staub cast iron even in a little package: perfect browning/searing, sublime heat distribution and retention and self-basting lid technology.

I love this color, it always makes me happy to pull it out and have it on my stove. I love all of the cocottes because they have superior browing and frying capabilities and nothing sticks to the bottom of the pan. I love the spikes on the underside of the lids that continually baste your food whether in the oven or on top of the stove for a long braise. I take the cocottes straight from the oven or stove to the table for serving so I can spread that cheer that this color brings. Cleaning is easy as well and I never need to use more than a plastic mesh scrubber to get it nice and clean.

Bright and beautiful

I love the color it is bright and vibrant. Love the way Staub cooks, can’t beat the products. Long life to pass down to generations.

Makes cooking more enjoyable

My first experiences were cooking with the cast iron cocotte that I received as a gift. I’ve since expanded with various pieces of cast iron and ceramic. My favorite piece is the large grill pan for grilling steaks, artisan sausages and many types of vegetables. The even cooking that the Staub pieces produce makes cooking unique comfort food an immersive experience rather than just a task. The cocottes go from stovetop to oven to serving on the table. Cooking with Staub gives me such confidence that I regularly explore new recipes knowing that my cookware will help produce chef quality results.

Nice for Two

This smaller profile cocotte is a great size if you're cooking for two. It also comes in handle for side dishes...this houses my baked corn casserole every Thanksgiving! No seasoning of the iron is necessary because Staub cast iron has a matte black interior that cleans up so easily. The exterior glazing is beautiful and scratch resistant even when scrubbing off baked on mess.
