Staub Cast Iron Braiser

No, the Staub braiser features a textured black matte enamel interior that is ready to use right out of the box. It does not require seasoning and is designed to develop a natural patina over time that enhances browning.

Yes, the braiser is fully induction compatible. Its cast iron construction and flat base design ensure it works efficiently on all stovetop types, including induction, gas, and electric.

While the braiser is dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing to preserve the longevity of the enamel finish. A quick wash with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge is usually sufficient to clean the matte interior.

The braiser is oven-safe up to 500°F. This makes it ideal for high-heat roasting and finishing dishes that require a quick sear on the stovetop followed by a long roast in the oven.

The domed lid provides extra vertical clearance, which is essential for cooking larger cuts of meat or whole poultry. It also helps circulate moisture back into the food, ensuring your braises stay tender and flavorful.

The braiser is freezer-safe down to -4°F and oven-safe up to 500°F. However, you should always avoid extreme temperature shocks, such as placing a frozen pot directly into a preheated oven, to prevent potential damage to the enamel.
