A handmade production
This earthen daubiere is modeled, cooked, dried and decorated in Vallauris by one of the last potters of Vallauris. The well-known city of ceramics was a place where Picasso loved to make artistic potteries. The whole manufacturing process is done by hand following the ancestral gestures of the potters of yesteryear. It has a very particular shape that requires dexterity and control.
The pottery is first turned and modeled in the clay, then it dries before a first oven cooking to turn solid. Then it is glazed with a brown enamel on the inside and the top of the pot, including the neck, to make it waterproof and prevent water loss. Finally, it’s annealed at around 1000 ° C to fix the finish. It’s a long process that requires patience, especially when the weather comes to hinder the work of the potter: indeed, the drying time depends on the ambient humidity. But if it’s too dry, the pottery is then more brittle and difficult to handle. In other words, the weather plays a very important role in the manufacture of ceramics.
Provencal cooking pot
This is a traditional terracotta container in Provence, antique french cookware used for a long time to cook the famous Provencal daube of which we give you the recipe below. Its shape is designed to contain pieces of meat and vegetables for a stew. The daubiere is wide at its base, like a small casserole, then narrows at the neck to maintain the moist heat of vegetable water. A pierced rim lid is used to collect the marinade to add to the preparation automatically.
Recipe of Provencal daube
Several versions of Provencal stew come from different parts of Provence: there is the daube of Avignon, the daube of Nice and the comtadine daube. Each has variants, but the basic recipe remains the same, and always delicious. Check out our family recipe of the daube on our blog and give your opinion!

The daubiere is wonderful to look at.
I can't wait to cook with it.
I love my daubiere pot! It arrived quickly and in perfect condition. I seasoned it right away. For Easter dinner I made Pork Daube with Wild Mushrooms. Delicious!
Answer:
Yummy!
Very excited to receive my daubiere and can't wait to make my first stew this week!
Pot was packaged so well and arrived in perfect condition!
Thank you for taking the time to wrap it so carefully!
très bien
The Daubiere arrived in excellent condition, somewhat late due to the world crisis at the moment.
Just having cooked our first meal in it tonight with excellent feedback from the diners, I am sure that we will continue to use the Daubiere more often.
Answer:
Do not forget to use the Daubiere according to the instructions (no thermal shock) and it will serve you for a long time!
The daubiere pot arrived quickly and safely. I've used it twice so far and it works beautifully. It wasn't obvious to me whether it was meant to be on the stove top or in the oven. After some internet research, I've used it on a gas stove top with a heat diffuser. After five hours on the lowest possible flame the food temperatures were at a perfect 185 degrees. If you're considering buying one, don't be put off by the soaking and garlic rubbing, they're easy to do. I was also a little concerned that the mouth opening would be too small, but it's more than large enough to allow for easy scooping out and reaching in to wash with plain water. It's a beautiful pot that I enjoy seeing every time I walk in the kitchen. The daub recipe offered on the website was delicious.
Answer:
Thanks a lot for sharing your experience! Hope you'll enjoy the daubiere for a lifetime.
Absolutely beautiful. Looks even better than in its picture. Great craftsmanship. My wife loved it. She even placed an order with you for a casserole the morning after she opened the daubiere. Thank you.
Answer:
Many thanks and enjoy it to cook provencal specialities!
This was the only pot of its kind I could find on the internet. I wanted an authentic pot. And this pot is exquisite. The craftmanship is beyond outstanding. I now have a little bit of Provence in my kitchen. This is a true heirloom piece. I am thrilled. It was of course packed with love and arrived in the US quickly after ordering.
Answer:
Thank you for these compliments. We are going to transfer your appreciation to the potter and we know he will be more than happy.
OMG! This is the most beautiful daubiere I have ever seen. It is incredible and I highly recommend anyone truly interested in making a proper daube to buy this special pot.
Answer:
Thanks so much for your opinion! We will surely tell this to the potter. He will enjoy knowing that his daubiere is appreciated so much.
...and it was worth the wait. Absolutely beautiful. I soaked it over night and rubbed it inside and out with garlic... and this weekend made the most succulent Beef Bourgignon I've ever had. I'm amazed at what this pot does for this dish. I'm now searching the internet for a whole new world of slow cook recipes.
Answer:
We will send you some Provencal ones. Meanwhile, you can get chef François de Melogue's cooking books. His French recipes are simple, traditional, delicious and written in English.
I have both sizes and they are great!

Thank you so much for your review! Indeed, the daubiere from Vallauris is a best seller. It is unique :)
I am the happy new owner of a daubière from Vallauris France thanks to Marie-Helene and Remember Provence. It was made upon order, and Marie-Helene was wonderful about keeping me "in the loop" through its production. It arrived in perfect shape along with careful instructions as to how to prepare it for its first use. I followed the instructions, made my first Daube, and am absolutely delighted with the results. Thanks so much "Remember Provence"!
Answer:
And thanks to the potter overall... Congratulations to the cook! We wish you will make many many delicious daubes during a lifetime in the daubiere...

Questions
Peut on utiliser la daubiere sur des plaques électriques ou à gaz, et peut on mettre de l'eau dans le couvercle
si nous faisons la daube sans marinade ????
Merci
Bonjour Sandrine,
Oui, il est tout à fait possible de l'utiliser sur des plaques de cuisson quel que soit le revêtement pourvu que le fond de la poterie soit protégée de la chaleur directe. Nous recommandons de placer sous la daubière un diffuseur - mijoteur si vous en avez un, ou une simple poêle qui servira d'écran. Toujours démarrer à petit feu, puis augmenter progressivement pour éviter les chocs thermiques.
D'autre part, vous pouvez mettre de l'eau dans le couvercle , qui aura pour effet de réhydrater votre préparation automatiquement.
Le daubier en terre cuit est à combien litre svp?
Merci d'avance,
Bonne journée
Judit
