Why choose it

The Chistera lid’s interior spikes continuously collect and redistribute moisture, basting food for tender, juicy results without extra effort. The black matte enamel interior develops a natural patina over time, enhancing browning and flavour. Its heavy cast iron construction holds heat exceptionally well, making it ideal for slow cooking, braising, and baking.

Ideal use cases

• Slow-cooked stews, casseroles, and pot roasts
• Baking artisan bread with a crispy crust
• Oven-to-table serving for family dinners
• Induction and all hob types, including grill

Good to know

Hand wash with warm water and mild soap; avoid abrasive cleaners to preserve the enamel. The cocotte is not dishwasher safe. The nickel-plated brass knob is oven safe, but avoid extreme temperature shocks. Allow the cocotte to cool before washing.
