Manufacturer's Description
This casserole dish is great for 'one-pot meals' and slow-cooked stews in the oven such as boeuff bourguignon or cajun chicken in rice and covered roasts. The lid keeps food warm and allows for beautiful presentation. This attractive dish with its bold classic colours and sure grip handles goes straight from baking to the table, then to the refrigerator or freezer for storage.

Le Creuset Stoneware Facts:

Practical and versatile Le Creuset stoneware is designed to go from the freezer to the oven and to the table in style. Manufactured using the highest quality material and techniques, Le Creuset stoneware offers much greater resistance to extreme temperature changes. The tough craze-free glass is totally hygienic – it will not absorb food or flavours and is stain and scratch resistant and has an easy clean finish.

Hygienic:

The smooth enamelled surface is scratch resistant and makes for fast, easy cleaning. The totally hygienic cooking surface will not absorb odours or flavours. Perfect for storing foods (raw or cooked) in the refrigerator or freezer. Will clean easily by hand or by dishwasher if used in accordance with our care and use.

Adaptability and versatility:

Baking, roasting, storage, or preparation, Le Creuset has a Stoneware dish to do the job. Easy to hold, sure grip handles, knobs and rims. Le Creuset is available in a wide range of colours that match our cast iron range and are equally at home in the kitchen or on your dining table.

Stoneware Care and Use:

Do not use any piece on cooker hobs or any other direct heat source. When in the oven a maximum oven temperature of 260 degrees Celsius or 500 degrees Fahrenheit. We recommend using Le Creuset oven mitts for lifting hot dishes at all times. When using under a grill allow a gap between the rim of the dish and the heat source of no less than 6 ½ cm / 2 ½ inches. When using in a microwave handles may become hot during prolonged microwave use and especially if the handles are enclosed with cling film. Cover just the open top of the dish leaving the handles exposed. When using from the freezer to oven do not place a frozen dish of food in a pre-heated oven. Place the frozen dish in a cold oven and set the temperature, allowing the dish and oven to heat together. Before serving always check that the centre of the food is completely and uniformly hot.

Cleaning:

Before use wash the dish in hot soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. For most day-to-day cleaning, cool the dish for a few minutes then wash and dry as above, or wash in the dishwasher, allowing the full cycle to complete. Never leave a dish fully immersed in water. For removal of stubborn residues allow the dish to cool, fill with warm soapy water and allow it to soak for 10 – 20 minutes. Wash in the usual way using, if necessary, a plastic brush or scouring pad.

beware Zero rate really!
Beware!! After buying Le Creuset stoneware Casserole dish, and having only used it a few times since buying it in February 2006 ;the lid developed cracks and the Le Creuset helpline were most unhelpful, and basically did not want to know. Their answer was "you must have dropped it as our products do not crack"! well I am sorry but this one did and my warning to you is beware their guarantee means nothing.

Smaller Than I imagined
Is the only flaw; which can easily be blamed on Internet jpegs and my inability to visualise metric measurements.
Perfect for a 3-4 person meal. Anymore and you'll be found wanting.
