Staub Cast-Iron 5-qt. Essential French Oven Basil

Staub’s Essential French oven features a rounded body and curved sides for easy stirring and to prevent food build up in the corners. It’s made in France with a thick, protective exterior finish of colorful porcelain enamel. On the inside, Staub ovens feature a textured, matte-black enamel finish, and the lids are tight fitting to lock in flavor and moisture. The knobs on Staub lids are made of nickel. All in all, it's a recipe for wonderful cookware, ovens that goes from the stovetop to the oven to the table with superb performance and enduring beauty. Staub ovens are a top choice for soups, stews, casseroles of all kinds, chili, curries; anything that cooks or bakes slowly does best in enameled cast-iron. Staub cookware is designed and built to provide a lifetime of great food. Hand washing strongly recommended.
