This tall cocotte or casserole roasting Dutch oven is for slow-cooking meats and vegetables to simmering hearty stews and soups. The tall version makes it the ideal capacity and still saves space on stovetops. The additional height reduces the risk of boil overs and splatters. Cast iron possesses exceptional heat-retaining qualities, so the pot heats evenly. Staub's special matte black enamel interior and self-basting spiked lid for browning and braising enhances the flavors of your foods. Beautiful enamel finish goes from stovetop to table-top for serving.  Built to last a lifetime, these heirloom pieces can be passed down to the next generation.
