Know before you buy
Yes, the porcelain enamel over steel construction is safe for stovetop use, making it convenient for warming sauces or keeping dishes hot before serving.
While porcelain enamel over steel is highly durable, it is a glass-based coating. It is resistant to everyday wear, but it should be handled with care to avoid hard impacts against stone or metal surfaces.
A 4-quart capacity is ideal for serving large salads, pasta dishes, or a generous amount of seafood. With a 13.5-inch diameter, it provides a wide surface area that works well as a centerpiece for family-style dining.
Yes, it is oven-safe. You can use it to bake dishes or keep food warm, though you should avoid using it under a high-heat broiler to protect the integrity of the enamel finish.
No special maintenance is required. The rim is designed for added strength and durability, and it can be cleaned right along with the rest of the basin in the dishwasher.
