Nastavitev in prva uporaba
- Razpakiraj: Carefully remove all packaging materials and labels from the cocotte.
- pranje: Before first use, wash the cocotte and lid with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
- Initial Oil Rub (Optional but Recommended): For the matte black enamel interior, lightly rub the entire interior surface with a small amount of cooking oil (e.g., vegetable oil, grapeseed oil). Heat the cocotte over low heat for a few minutes until the oil is absorbed. Wipe off any excess oil. This helps to build up a natural patina over time, enhancing non-stick properties.
Navodila za uporabo
Splošne smernice za kuhanje
- Nizka do srednja toplota: Cast iron retains heat exceptionally well. Always start with low to medium heat and gradually increase if needed. High heat can cause food to stick and may damage the enamel over time.
- Predgretje: Preheat the cocotte gradually on low to medium heat for 5-10 minutes before adding food. This ensures even heat distribution.
- Use of Oil/Fat: Always use a small amount of oil or fat when cooking to prevent sticking and enhance flavor.
- Pribor: Za preprečevanje praskanja emajlirane površine uporabljajte lesene, silikonske ali toplotno odporne plastične pripomočke. Kovinski pripomočki niso priporočljivi.
- Uporaba pokrova: The heavy, tight-fitting lid is designed to create a self-basting environment. Keep the lid on during cooking to retain moisture and flavor, especially for slow-cooked dishes.

Nega in vzdrževanje
Čiščenje
- Ohlajanje: Always allow the cocotte to cool completely before washing. Submerging a hot cocotte in cold water can cause thermal shock, leading to cracking or chipping of the enamel.
- Ročno pranje (priporočeno): While the cocotte is dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended to preserve the enamel finish and extend the product's lifespan. Use warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or brush.
- Trdovratna hrana: For stuck-on food, fill the cocotte with warm water and let it soak for 15-20 minutes before cleaning. A plastic scraper can be used to gently remove residue. Avoid using steel wool or harsh abrasive cleaners.
- Sušenje: Dry the cocotte thoroughly immediately after washing to prevent water spots and rust (especially on any exposed cast iron rims, though STAUB enamel covers most surfaces).
Shranjevanje
Store your cocotte in a dry place. To prevent scratching, place a paper towel or cloth between the cocotte and its lid if stacking. Avoid stacking other cookware on top of the cocotte.

Odpravljanje težav
- Lepljenje hrane: Ensure you are using enough oil or fat and preheating the cocotte properly on low to medium heat. Avoid using excessively high heat.
- Razbarvanje: Minor discoloration of the enamel can occur over time, especially with high-heat cooking or certain ingredients. This is normal and does not affect performance. For stubborn stains, a paste of baking soda and water can be gently applied and scrubbed.
- Sekanje: Avoid dropping the cocotte or hitting it with hard objects. Thermal shock (sudden temperature changes) can also cause chipping. Always let the cocotte cool gradually.
