Know before you buy
No, this cocotte is made of ceramic and is not compatible with stovetop burners. It is designed specifically for oven-to-table service, microwave heating, or cold storage.
The ceramic construction is heat-safe up to 572° F. This makes it suitable for most standard baking, roasting, and broiling tasks.
Yes, the cocotte comes with a matching lid that features a stem-shaped handle. It is designed to sit securely on top to help retain heat and moisture while serving.
The cocotte features a scratch-resistant glass porcelain finish that is dishwasher safe, making cleanup straightforward. While durable, avoid using harsh metal scouring pads to maintain the integrity of the glaze.
While the material is freezer and oven safe, it is best practice to allow the cocotte to reach room temperature before placing it in a preheated oven to prevent thermal shock.
This size is ideal for individual portions of French onion soup, baked mac and cheese, small fruit crumbles, or even as a decorative vessel for dips and cheese fondues.
