Staub Universal Deluxe Pan with Glass Lid, 4 qt.

The Universal Deluxe truly lives up to its name! This extremely versatile French-made pan does it all—its large cooking surface and tall sides are great for braising, sautéing and deep-frying, and its textured black-matte interior browns with the best of them. It’s even safe for the oven and broiler, so you can use it to bake desserts and casseroles or turn out crispy cuts of meat and fillets of fish too!

Cast iron is extremely good at retaining steady, even heat, so the temperature of the pan won’t drop as you cook. The glass lid keeps flavorful juices in the pan and allows you to see the food as it cooks—the dome shape offers a little extra room for covered dishes. Two generous side handles make it easy to move the pan around and transport it from the stovetop or oven to the table where it becomes a beautiful serving piece.
