Know before you buy
While the stoneware is durable, it is best practice to allow the dish to reach room temperature before placing it in a preheated oven to prevent thermal shock.
Yes, the handles are designed as part of the rim, providing a stable grip. However, because they are integrated, ensure your oven mitts provide a secure hold since the handles will get just as hot as the rest of the dish.
The Italian stoneware is quite durable, but like most glazed ceramics, it can be susceptible to surface marks from sharp metal cutlery. We recommend using wooden or silicone utensils to keep the finish looking pristine.
No special care is needed. The piece is fully dishwasher safe, though we recommend loading it securely to prevent it from knocking against other dishes during the cycle.
The baker has an overall height of 2.75 inches, which provides a generous depth for roasting vegetables, baking gratins, or serving side dishes.
