Le Creuset Traditional Roasting Cocotte

The Le Creuset Traditional Roasting Cocotte has been designed to make searing, sautéing, braising or frying as enjoyable as savoring the final result. Made of enameled cast iron, its slightly inclined walls and its large interior surface make it a piece that is as versatile as it is elegant, with which success in your recipes is guaranteed.

This roasting cocotte is made in the same way and with the same materials and finishes as the round Le Creuset cocotte, but it has two advantages that must be taken into account:

• Its walls are lower, so it has a smaller amount of iron. So It is not as heavy as the traditional cocotte of the same diameter. It is a cocotte that is lighter in handling.
  
• Being lower, the lid is closer to the food, and since it will be heated like the rest of the cocotte in the oven, by radiating the heat, it helps it cook more quickly and, especially in meats, the results in roasts are fabulous (the meat takes on a golden color more quickly).

With its design in the style of traditional roasters, it is an ideal cocotte if what you are looking for is a wide cocotte and height is not an essential in your stews.

Like all Le Creuset iron cocottes, it is a piece coveted by all cooks in the world, which will give you guarantees years of pleasure in the kitchen and at the table. Like the Evolution cocotte, Le Creuset's latest model, it includes the following improvements compared to the previous ones:

• Larger handles to be able to hold and transport the iron pot from the oven to the table with greater comfort and safety, even with kitchen gloves.
• Interior vitrified more resistant to stains, wear and scratches. It is also easier to clean than traditional vitrification.
  
• New lid design with better fit to retain moisture and flavor inside the cocotte.
• More ergonomic and comfortable knob to hold.
