From the Classic collection. Staub's innovative black-matte enamel coating takes cast-iron cooking to the next level with improved performance, style and durability. Bring single servings of beans, macaroni and cheese and fruit cobblers directly from the oven to the table in these mini cocottes. Heavyweight enamelled cast iron transfers and retains heat evenly. Matte black cast iron features multi-coat enamelling with a low-gloss matte finish. The specially formulated black matte interior enamel of each piece contains traces of quartz, giving it additional heat resistance and a rougher surface resulting in better browning. Not recommended for glass stove tops
