Know before you buy
Yes. The stoneware is designed with thermal resistance that handles temperatures from -9°F to 500°F, allowing you to transition from the freezer to the oven without the risk of cracking.
While the glaze is virtually nonstick and makes cleanup significantly easier, we still recommend using a light coating of oil or butter for recipes that are particularly prone to sticking, such as egg-based dishes or sticky desserts.
Yes, the premium stoneware glaze is scratch-resistant and safe for use with metal utensils, though using silicone or wooden tools will help maintain the pristine finish of the glaze over time.
The lid is designed to sit securely on the dish to lock in moisture and heat while baking. However, it is not a vacuum-sealed or locking lid, so you should keep the dish level when transporting it to potlucks or picnics.
Yes, this casserole dish is broiler-safe up to 500°F, making it ideal for browning the tops of gratins, casseroles, or melting cheese.
No. The nonporous glaze is non-reactive, meaning it will not absorb odors, flavors, or stains, even after repeated use with strong ingredients like garlic or tomato sauce.
