Emile Henry Miniature Casserole Dishes, Set of 4, Azure Blue

Product Review

Marcigny, a small town nestling between the hills of Southern Burgundy, has been home to Emile Henry for the past 150 years. Faithful to its origins, the entire production is carried out here. Thanks to its clay, rich in refractory properties, Burgundy has remained a fertile area for potters, passing on their savoir-faire from generation to generation. Clay, a natural and noble material, has been used since the mists of the time to cook or preserve food. While respecting the traditional techniques, Emile Henry has introduced technological improvements (Ceradon ®) so that the dishes are more resistant to mechanical and thermal shock. Strong, durable, all Emile Henry pieces can be taken directly from the freezer to the hot oven, can go under a broiler and is microwave, freezer and dishwasher safe. The natural clay is unsurpassed for conducting and retaining heat. All pieces are perfect for everyday use and carry a 3 year warranty against defects.

Be aware that these are 2 1/2"wide x 3" long x 1" high. They are very tiny, and it is difficult to think of a practical use for them, unfortunately. I hope Amazon corrects the text to accurately reflect the product.

These are really mini. They must be intended for a toy oven set. I received them as a gift, both the giver and I thought they would be individual serving size, but they are hardly bite size. I can't think of any practical use. Amazon should list the size prominently in the catalog.

The add need correcting., November 26, 2011

I did before I saw this Review. I work in Egypt for 30 days at a time and thought I was buying something nice from the add online but when my wife got them in the mail she asked why I got them. I told her to look at the add to see if they shipped the right item. After looking at the add the add makes them look like large dishes but short but the no so. The add is way off. They are so small they could be used as a shot glass if you need a drink after buying them.
