You may know it as a cocotte or Dutch oven, but we call this multitalented 4-quart number a one-pot cooker, bread baker, and tender stew-maker. A beloved French kitchen mainstay, it's got classic lines that look right at home in the center of the dinner table and a design that’s made to stand the test of time. (There’s a reason your grandma’s still got hers.) Built from chip-resistant enameled cast iron, it retains heat long after it’s left the oven or stovetop. As for browning? It’s a born champ, making for more flavorful soups and roasts.
Use it on any type of heating surface from the get-go—yep, even induction—no seasoning required. Bonus: The glass lid gives you front-row views and is oven safe up to 500°F while keeping all those flavors inside to work their magic. And we haven't even gotten to the colors! In a parade of options from the show-stealing to the match-everything, there's an option for everyone.
