Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Ideal for baking small casseroles, this 8-1/2-inch, 1-quart oval dish is a traditional French shape and has an attractive ridged exterior that makes it welcome in country kitchens. It can go directly from freezer to oven, into the microwave, under the broiler, and through the dishwasher without harming its glossy, lead-free glaze, which does not absorb odors or moisture and is so hard it will not crack, discolor, or scratch--even if food is cut on it. It measures 1-3/4 inches deep.

Since 1850, Emile Henry cookware and bakeware have been made in Burgundy, where a unique clay is kiln-fired into a ceramic unsurpassed for conducting and retaining heat. Prized worldwide, Emile Henry products come in a wide range of colors, from the bright hues (with white interiors) of the Couleurs line to the earth tones (with creamy interiors) of the rustic Le Potier line, of which this green dish is a glowing example. Each piece is stamped with the year it was made and the initials of the craftsman responsible for its perfection and carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

5.0 out of 5 stars A perfect dish....., April 22, 2003

This review is from: Emile Henry Le Potier 1-Quart Oval Dish, Green (Kitchen)

Yes, the editorial review is correct - this can go from freezer to oven to table then in the dishwasher. I typically handwash mine and nothing sticks to them - very easy to clean. The poterie line coordinates perfectly with any Le Creuset pieces you may have. I especially like the oval shape for side dishes as it is a more attractive presentation when placed on the table or on a buffet.

Even if you don't cook, this size is very handy to reheat foods. It makes any dish look better. This line is not as heavy as some pottery lines and that is a plus when you have a large, full dish of food. This size along with a 9x13 and a 8x8 should fulfill all your baking/cooking needs. I would add the small custard cups as they are wonderful for salsa or dips and if you bake you can make individual desserts in them.

This line is sold in Williams Sonoma and that in itself is an indication of the quality of this line. Of course, the pricing and selection is better here at www.Amazon.com!
