Staub heart cocotte, enameled cast iron
The heart-shaped, cherry-red cocotte will prove that love really can be served up on a plate. This pot gently cooks nutritious and aromatic meals by combining cast iron with matt black enamelling to give excellent heat retention and thermal conductivity. An even and gentle dispersion of heat helps vegetables to retain their vitamins, and the matt black enamelling brings out their flavours. The heart-shaped cocotte is ideal for occasions such as Valentine's Day, marriage proposals or wedding meals. Its shape also makes it perfect as a serving utensil, and it keeps food warmer for longer – another advantage of cast iron's heat retaining properties. The cocotte measures 20 cm in diameter has a 1.75 l capacity, perfect for portions for 1–2 people. Two flat handles at the sides of the pot make it easy to transfer to and from the oven. Use STAUB's heart-shaped cocotte to make delicious meals for special occasions.

Majolica enamel expertise
Special majolica enamels: comprising 100% glass
The special technique used to give majolica enamels their color results in uniquely glossy enamel in deep and intense shades.
The three-coat majolica enameling process:
1. Black base coat applied to prepare the rough cast iron, guaranteeing a superior finish by smoothing over small irregularities in the cast surface.
2. Colored enamel coating.
3. Finish coating, a special majolica formula that gives the colors a high gloss and very intense shade with marked contrasts.
