Product Description
An innovation in ceramics technology, Emile Henry's 2.6-qt. Flame Top Casserole works directly on a gas flame or an electric or halogen hob without a diffuser and without fear of cracking or breaking. Extremely durable and versatile, it can also be used in the broiler or oven and transported directly to the table, refrigerator, or freezer. Much lighter than many comparable metal cookware products, it cleans up easily and is both microwave- and dishwasher-safe. Plus, cooking in ceramic is still the best way to preserve the flavors and nuritional qualities in food, as well as develop the aromas. The convenient lid features small bumps on its underside that favor the condensation process and return important vapors back into the food.

Comment: OK. I have a kitchen full of All Clad (great stuff), and cast iron (raised on it) but this Flame top pot is a thing of beauty. I find myself reaching for it again and again. Light, even heat distribution, holds the heat and sturdy (I don't pamper my cooking tools). And there is something ineffable about cooking in ceramic. It is pricey but I recommend not to every go cheap in the kitchen. If you don't have a lot of money and are just starting out, get this pan and an an olive wood spatula. You'll get a lifetime of joyful cooking out of both. (I had to sent it back several times because it arrived broken...patience will pay off.)
