Le Creuset mini cocottes for perfect portion servings
This set of 4 elegant mini cocottes from Le Creuset's Gourmand collection allows you to serve individual portions straight from oven to table. With a diameter of 11 cm and a capacity of 300 ml, each cocotte is made from enameled cast iron that retains heat throughout your meal. These cocottes are produced in France with Le Creuset's renowned quality.
Ideal for serving French onion soup, gratins, small tarts, or creamy desserts, where both presentation and temperature play a critical role.
Exceptional heat properties for perfect cooking
The cast iron in these mini cocottes evenly distributes heat and maintains a stable temperature, ensuring consistent cooking of your dishes. The unique enamel coating on the interior develops a natural patina over time, acting as a non-stick surface. This not only enhances cooking but also allows you to use less fat while still achieving excellent results. The cocottes can be used on nearly all heat sources – from induction and electric cooktops to gas stoves, ceramic plates, and even wood-fired ovens.
Practical design for both cooking and serving
With their compact size and classic French design, these mini cocottes are made to go directly from preparation to serving. The cast iron's ability to retain heat means your portioned dishes stay warm long after serving. Each cocotte has a capacity of 300 ml – perfect for individual servings. They can withstand temperatures up to 300°C, giving you the freedom to experiment with different cooking methods. The set includes 4 identical black mini cocottes, weighing a total of 2.5 kg.
Maintenance for longevity
To keep your Le Creuset mini cocottes in optimal condition, it is recommended to use low to medium heat and allow the cocottes to warm up slowly. Use utensils made of wood, silicone, or heat-resistant plastic to protect the enamel. After use, let the cocottes cool completely before cleaning, and to develop the natural patina, avoid dishwashing detergent and instead use warm water. Always lift the cocottes – do not drag them across surfaces, especially not on glass-ceramic cooktops.
