Know before you buy
Yes, the stoneware is broiler safe and can withstand temperatures up to 572ºF, making it perfect for browning cheese or breadcrumbs on top of your dishes.
While the stoneware is freezer and oven safe, it is best practice to allow the cocotte to come to room temperature before placing it in a hot oven to prevent thermal shock.
The 1/2-quart size is ideal for individual portions of soup or small sides, while the 3/4-quart size offers a bit more capacity if you are serving heartier stews or larger vegetable portions.
No, the vitreous glass porcelain-enamel finish is non-absorbent, which prevents food from soaking into the material and makes the cocottes resistant to staining and odors.
Yes, these cocottes are dishwasher safe, though hand washing is recommended to maintain the luster of the enamel finish over time.
