Staub Gohan matte black enamelled cast-iron Dutch oven for rice and pulses

Cook rice and cereals using less water

Staub 's Gohan rice cooker is a cooking utensil that combines tradition and modernity. Its creation was inspired by the ancestral Japanese method of cooking rice, the "gohan", from which it takes its name. Rice was originally cooked slowly and evenly in a clay or ceramic pot called a "hagama".

This pot is made from enamelled cast iron, a natural material that ensures excellent heat conduction. The heat is diffused progressively and evenly. The cocotte's enameling is called Black Matt, a highly wear-resistant coating that not only preserves your cocotte for a long time. It also prevents rice from sticking to the bottom of the cocotte for perfect cooking.

In keeping with traditional Japanese rice cooking principles, the cocotte features a spiked lid with a Chistera Drop structure. The droplet-shaped spikes concentrate condensation water and redistribute it continuously and evenly over the rice. This permanent watering prevents the rice from sticking and reinforces the action of the Black Matt coating.

The result is light, fragrant rice. Cooking is faster and requires less water than a traditional casserole. This versatile casserole is also ideal for cooking cereals such as quinoa or bulgur, and legumes such as white beans. Make a delicious risotto, cassoulet or even blanquette de veau!

A cast-iron casserole for every need

The Gohan rice cooker is available in a range of diameters to suit everyone:

The cocotte can also be used on a wide range of hobs, as it is compatible with all burners including induction. You can also place it in the oven up to +260°C if you wish to reheat or keep warm a preparation.

Two handles make it easy to handle. You can easily move it to your dining table. The lid, too, has a button for easy opening and closing.

The Gohan rice cooker is finished in a superb matte black, giving it a very elegant look. It's a timeless color that will stay with you for years to come.

We recommend washing your cocotte by hand with a non-abrasive sponge to avoid scratching the coating. The dishwasher can be used very occasionally. Once washed, dry the cocotte immediately to avoid streaking.
