Emile Henry Ceramic Large Oval Dish 35.5 x 23cm in Rouge / Red [ 369022 ]

For 6 generations, the teams at Emile Henry have handed down the passion for quality ceramic, handmade in their workshops in Burgundy, France.

Founded in 1850, and located in Marcigny, a small town in the province of Burgundy, France, Emile Henry have established a worldwide reputation for manufacturing the finest quality ceramic ovenware, gourmet cooking products, and bakeware products. Still owned and operated by the Henry family, the company today manufactures all cooking products from Burgundy clay using their proprietary High Resistance Oven Ceramic state-of-the-art manufacturing process.

Emile Henry’s special clay formula slowly diffuses heat to the very centre of the dish. Food is cooked evenly, gently drawing out flavours and aromas from each ingredient. With superior heat retention properties, Burgundy clay keeps food hotter for longer when resting on the dining table or on a kitchen sideboard.

What’s more, products do not chip or crack easily and are thermal shock resistant. One can cut directly on the surface without scratching or damaging the product. The surfaces do not trap or hold baked on or burnt food. Cleaning is remarkably easy. All Emile Henry products can be easily hand washed or go into the dishwasher.

These French-made oval dishes are often referred to as 'Gratin' dishes. The word 'Gratin' originated in French cuisine and it refers to food, frequently potatoes, that feature a creamy sauce and browned crust of bread crumbs, grated cheese and butter. You will appreciate the shape and the quality of this HR® (High Resistance) ceramic dish which is resistant to chipping and extreme temperatures.
