Setup
Before initial use, wash the La Cocotte with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.

This helps protect the enamel coating.

Care
- Cleaning: Allow the La Cocotte to cool completely before washing. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or metal scouring pads, as they can damage the enamel. Wash by hand with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge or cloth. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
- Storage: Store the La Cocotte in a dry place. Avoid stacking other cookware inside it, as it may cause scratches.
- Heat: Always use low to medium heat settings. High heat can damage the enamel coating and cause food to burn. Avoid thermal shock; do not place a hot La Cocotte in cold water.
