Pillivuyt Porcelain 9 Inch Square Chop Dish,

Product Description Pillivuyt square bakers come in four sizes and have a number of uses in your everyday cooking - from baking cakes and brownies to appetizers and roasts. Since all Pillivuyt dishes can be put in the freezer, the oven, the microwave and the dishwasher and all look great on the table, these are especially versatile cooking tools. These hearty dishes are chip-resistant and easy to clean and can even be put under the broiler for those finishing touches - browning, crisping or melted toppings. The walls of these dishes are thin and even, making heat conduction extremely efficient. The number of sizes to choose from gives you plenty of options for serving small families to large groups. The large square baker is a standard size for brownies and other dessert recipes. It measures 9 inches square and has a 1.5 quart capacity. Amazon.com With its thin, even walls and shallow 1-3/4-inch sides, this extra-large 11-inch square dish bakes a fish casserole for company or cooks extra-crispy pieces of fryer chicken with the ideal heat conduction for a superbly executed recipe. An exquisite specimen of fine French pottery, this porcelain baker is simple in appearance with its milky white color, rounded corners, and curved handles yet durable due to its proprietary time-tested ingredients and quality construction. The 3-quart baker's pristine beauty and excellent heat retention make it a wonderful serving vessel that goes from oven to table, and its plain design is certain to blend with all dinnerware, from casual and modern to formal and vintage. Family-founded in 1818, the Pillivuyt porcelain factory still employs skilled artisans who use 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
