This low cocotte is exactly the same, with the same shape, material and finishes, as the most popular Le Creuset cocotte, but with two advantages to take into account:

• By having lower walls there is less amount of iron, therefore, it is not as heavy as the traditional cocotte of the same diameter.
• The lid, which will heat up like the rest of the cocotte in the oven, being closer to the food and radiating heat, helps it cook faster, and especially with meats, you get a fabulous roast (the meat turns golden brown more quickly).
