Staub Graphite Roasting Dish

I just purchased a few of these as ways to prepare and serve side dishes for casual parties. They are beautiful, cook items perfectly, stay warm at the table and clean up quickly. This is why I love Staub. I am impressed. I want more

Love at first sight - when I first saw this item on sale online at Sur La Table I knew it was my chance to finally try a Staub product with something I genuinely could use. So I gave it a chance and ordered.

Unfortunately, the wrong size was initially delivered. The international sizing was confusing as, although it was listed as 3/4 quart and 20 cm, the company measures by cm's and I do not have cm on my ruler. It just was too small for my personal needs and I was to resign myself to a return. However, when I converted the 3/4 quart to 2 cups of liquid I realized that the wrong size had been sent as the dish held only 1.5 cups of liquid.

The return process was seamless and the following week the box arrived. It looked the same, or did it. Pouring 2 cups of water into the pan filled it exactly to the top without a drop leaking over or room for another drop to be added. My heart throbbed. Seasoning the pan as suggested, I fried my first egg to perfection.

The pan is a perfect size for one to two people to roast vegetables and prepare small meals/dishes. My Le Crueset lid fits perfectly as do a few of my glass lids from other companies. It heats evenly and cooks at a lower temperature so one has time to consider additions or freshly grind spices for ad lib preparation. And it is a breeze to clean …
I absolutely love it.

Well constructed ,great size, easy to clean.

Good quality and cleans easily
