Do you know what a cocotte is? For all those who do not know what it is, surely seeing the image has already come to mind the way of cooking that our grandmothers had. Well, a cocotte is a pan made with cast iron that is vitrified. And will you tell me ... vitri what? Vitrified means that transmits heat in a spectacular way, keeping food always just right, it keeps the heat for longer, and also that it is very easy to clean.
And as I was saying, the cocotte is not an invention of today, as we go back to its year of appearance, 1925, in France, so surely on your mind is having seen your grandmothers cook with these very useful pans.
The cocottes they adapt to all types of heat sources, including induction, is especially recommended for this type of source, the oven and the barbecue. And we can use them to do stews, stews, legumes, soupy rice and even bread!
Comes with a lid that can have two types of knob. One named black phenolic, who reaches a maximum of 190ºC in the oven and another knob that is stainless steel and can be used at any temperature.
As for their prices, for example in the online store Cooking TKC, you can find them from € 149 for a 22 cm cocotte. On Amazon, the 24 cm cocotte is priced at € 128,09, or at Seleqto from € 51 in various sizes.
