Product Description

Emile Henry Flame-Top ceramic cookware is light and versatile, an innovative breakthrough in ceramics technology. Our new line of Burgundy Clay Flame-Top ceramics products work directly on a gas flame or an electric or halogen hob without a diffuser, without any fear of cracking or breaking. Much lighter, (30% lighter), than many types of comparable metal cookware products, Flame-Top is microwave and dishwasher-safe, cleans up very easily, is extremely strong and durable, goes under the broiler, and can go directly from a freezer or a refrigerator to a hot oven to the table, where it will retain the cooking heat for a very long time. Unlike most metal cookware products, Flame-Top cookware can sit on a very hot open flame for an extended period of time without any ingredients in the cook pot, and they will not crack, discolor or break. Perfect for braising, browning and slow cooking due to the incredibly gentle heat distribution properties of Burgundy Clay, Flame-Top products cook evenly and thoroughly when used on top of the stove, in the oven or even in the microwave. Enhancing this gentle cooking action are raised dots on the underneath side of each lid that evenly distribute evaporated juices directly back into the cooking food. This self-basting technique produces a more thoroughly cooked, tender and moist dish than with traditional lids, which force liquids to run down the sides of the pot, and which contribute to even cooking. Emile Henry Flame-Top ceramic cookware is light and versatile, and better brings out the flavors of all cooked foods.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Fondue Pot Ever, December 28, 2010

These are the best fondue pots ever. I received the yellow one as a wedding present a few years ago. Since then I've purchased the red one for my sister and now the black one for my sister-in-law (got to be able to tell them apart when we all get together). We've done cheese, chocolate, oil, & broth, used them on gas burners and electric and not only do they heat evenly, but they clean up easily too (even if someone forgets to clean-up until the next day).

Well, the packaging first time wasn't great so it arrived broken, but Amazon's great customer service sent me a new one 2 day shipping and the packing was great second time. I have to say this " do not think of buying other kinds of fondue pots because this is it!" this pot is the ultimate fondue pot, cooks evenly, cleans easy and very classy looking, don't waste your money on other pots that are cheaper. we love it! highly recommended.
