Stunning.

Staub cast iron cookware is some of the most stunning looking cookware I’ve seen.

Not only is it made to be used every day it’s is gorgeous.

There’s no need for special saving dishes. The cookware looks gorgeous on the table.

Looking at pieces you know they are superbly well made. Colours are deep and rich. I cannot choose my favorite.

I own several matte black pieces to complement my antique cast-iron skillets and couldn’t be happier, although I have to admit sometimes I have an envious eye deeply rich blue and green cocottes.

Design Performance.

If purchasing a braising pot or cocotte your Staub piece comes with a tight-fitting lid. The tight-fitting lid keeps moisture from escaping and evaporating.

Since the spikes under the lid, drop moisture evenly back into food being cooked keeping meat tender vegetables retaining their natural favours.

In addition, heavy lids designed to stop moisture escaping is perfect for slow cooked meals.

Experts in enamelware.

Enameling is not easy and the French have been experts at it for centuries.

Equally important, you may have seen lower cost enameled cast-iron cookware with huge chips in the glaze. This is even before leaving the store. I’ve also heard owners chipping their cookware with careful use.

Staub are experts at enameling cast iron. They use a base coat to smooth roughness and at least two layers of glaze to give their piece a deep rich finish that is resistant to chipping and scratching.

If you are looking to buy a gift I recommend very strong brands names like Staub and Le Creuset that pride themselves on making quality enamelware as their signature product,.

Craftsmanship.

Staub is a relatively new company competing in the extremely competitive cookware market but they have a reputation as one of the finest cookware makers.

Staub has focused on quality. Each piece is truly unique and has its own characteristic. Since employees check each piece individually to smooth any rough edges, no two pieces of Staub made cast-iron are the same.

Staub like Le Creuset uses individual sand molds to make their pieces then each inspected before glazing.

The matte black seems slightly rougher on the inside of the handles compared to the glossy coloured pieces which have a smoother finish.

This gives each piece personality and characteristics I can only compare to antique cast-iron.

Glazing.

During the firing process glass is heated to 750ºC – 850ºC (1380ºF – 1560 ºF). Enamel can easily crack in the firing process. Similarly, Le Creuset and Staub use at least two coats of glaze and an undercoat.  This separates Staub and Le Creuset from other cheaper enamelware.

Quality detailing.

Firstly Staub uses metal knobs as standard on their products.

Their flagship matte black pieces come with a brass knob while their colored pieces come with a nickel plated knob.

Metal knobs are heat resistant up to 250ºC/482ºF. Using metal knobs differentiates Staub from their competitors and highlights their importance in quality and attention to detail.

Dark interiors.

Since Staub cast iron cookware has black interiors food stains are less apparent.

Made in France.

Another point to consider the cast iron manufacture is it makes their cast-iron products locally in France. It is so easy for manufacturers to move overseas with cheaper labour and lower cost of production.

Staub chooses to manufacture their enameled cast-iron in their hometown, in the beautiful region of Alsace which borders Switzerland and Germany.

Finally, if you are looking for the same benefits of cast-iron without the maintenance, Staub and Le Creuset are ideal choices. They are scratch and chip resistant and use multiple layers of glaze. The cookware is incredibly durable, long lasting and beautiful. If you would like to learn more about why love our Staub please click “here”.
