Oval cast iron dish Staub

The Staub oval cast iron dish is a shallow casserole with two handles that is as elegant as it is versatile. Made from black enamelled cast iron, it is a true all-rounder. It has the same construction as a cocotte, so you can cook with it on the hob, whatever type you have, and in the oven too. And as soon as the dish is ready, it will look wonderful on the table. Measuring 37 x 28 cm, its design is roomy and oval, making it perfect for cooking and roasting whole joints or dishes for the whole family. You will see how you use it for everything!

Its enamelled cast iron construction makes a difference from the very first use. It retains heat really well, distributes it evenly and helps food cook gently, little by little, with that golden finish we all crave. It is also perfect for all kinds of recipes, even those you start on the hob and finish in the oven, as you can do it all in the same dish, without dirtying anything else.

Roasts, gratins, stews, vegetables, meat, breads, savoury pies or tarts... This oval dish with its black enamel works brilliantly and looks great on the hob and on the table too.

Another detail you will really appreciate is its matt enamelled interior, which is hard-wearing and easy to clean, along with its two side handles that help you move it safely. The matt black vitreous enamel interior is highly valued for how well it performs in slow, gentle cooking and at high temperatures too. This finish helps brown food, is extremely durable, highly resistant to stains and scratches, and makes cleaning and maintenance easy.
