Know before you buy
No, the premium stoneware is ready to use immediately. While it features a virtually non-stick enamel, we recommend lightly greasing the dish if you are working with particularly sticky fillings or delicate crusts.
Yes, this dish is designed to withstand thermal shock. However, it is best practice to place the dish in a cold oven and allow it to heat up gradually with the oven to ensure the longevity of the stoneware.
The scalloped edge is both aesthetic and functional. It provides a guide for crimping your crust and offers a sturdy grip, making it easier to handle the dish when removing it from the oven.
While the glaze is highly durable and scratch-resistant, we recommend using silicone or wooden utensils to maintain the pristine finish of the interior enamel over time.
With a depth of 2.3 inches, this dish is deeper than a standard pie plate, making it ideal for deep-dish fruit pies, quiches, and savory pot pies that require extra volume.
Yes, the dish is broiler-safe up to 500°F. This is perfect for quickly browning the top of a meringue or adding a final touch of color to a savory crust.
