Description

This elegant 1-3/4-quart covered dish is ideal for baking moist vegetable casseroles or satisfying beef stews for hearty family meals. The large 9-1/4-by-6-3/4-inch dish has high, 3-inch sides for holding liquid ingredients and thick walls that provide the ideal heat conduction for slow-cooked dishes and that retain a dish's heat at the table. An exquisite specimen of fine French pottery, this porcelain casserole dish is a milky white color and has a curved rim and elegant scalloped handles that make it highly attractive for serving (although the handles are only 1/4-inch wide and don't offer a very secure hold). The matching lid is domed for locking in food's moisture during cooking. The lid is pierced with a hole to vent excess steam and has a convenient inset handle that doesn't take up extra space in the oven or cabinet. Family-founded in 1818, the Pillivuyt porcelain factory still employs skilled artisans who use the proprietary porcelain recipe and the original time-honored traditions of handcrafting each piece. Replacement molds are all handmade by craftspeople who have spent many years in training, and who shape them to the level of perfection that this superior bakeware requires. The result is a tough porcelain base that can withstand temperature extremes, making this baker safe to move among the oven, freezer, microwave, or broiler. And, with a little liquid in the baker, the pan can even be placed over a diffused flame on the stovetop. All pieces are glazed and fired at temperatures of about 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit, which produces a non-porous, rock-hard finish that easily cleans up by hand or in the dishwasher. The lead-free glaze is resistant to crazing and staining and won't absorb food odors or flavors.--Cristina Vaamonde

Pillivuyt Casserole with Lid
AB

As with all Pillivuyt porcelain this casserole is durable, heavy and clean up is effortless. A huge advantage is that you can prepare your roast or stew in advance, refrigerate or freeze it and place it right in a pre-heated oven safely without fear of cracking or shattering. It's a great size for roasting meats, vegetables and stews and it makes a beautiful oven to table presentation.
