The Burgundy area of France is rich in natural products and high in quality clay that is ideal for producing cookware. In Marcigny, since 1850, each Emile Henry dish is handmade and signed by skilled potters. Emile Henry dinnerware and bakeware is made of Ceradon, an exceptional product fired at 1100 degrees C (2000 degrees F), which is extremely solid and highly resistant. The Emile Henry ceradon pieces can go directly from the freezer to the hot oven (0 degrees F to 500+ degrees F) with no problems. The glaze is so hard that it is possible to carve directly in the dish without scratching. You will find the Emile Henry pieces very easy to clean due to the perfectly smooth glaze. All pieces are dishwasher safe.
Emile Henry has also developed the first ceramic casserole which goes on fire. Five years of development and tests were necessary to develop the Emile Henry Flame Top Collection. The Flame Top pieces are safe on all stovetops (for induction, you must have the Emile Henry induction disk), and each piece is dishwasher safe and easy to clean. Sear poultry or red meat and then simmer gently. Start cooking on the stovetop and then finish in the oven, under the broiler or even in the microwave. The stewpots retain heat longer than cast iron casseroles and come in stylish colors. Flame top is ideal for those who want the results of cast iron at a fraction of the heft.
