Know before you buy
No, this model does not include a lid. It is designed as an open-top baking and serving dish.
The dish features an enameled cast iron surface, which is not a non-stick coating. We recommend using a light amount of oil or butter when baking to ensure easy food release.
Yes, the dish is designed for oven-to-table use. Its matte black finish is aesthetically pleasing for serving, though you should always use a trivet or heat-resistant mat to protect your table surface.
The dish measures 7.48 inches in length, 5.9 inches in width, and 1.97 inches in height.
Because the dish lacks integrated handles, you must use heat-resistant oven mitts or silicone grips to securely grasp the sides when removing it from the oven.
