(More customer reviews)I find it a little odd that they say this is a green dish when is it mostly a beautiful warm brown although there is a lovely mossy sage glaze along the sides of the dish. I have been very busy testing out the casserole dish in all sorts of ways in my test kitchen. My first recipe test was making slow-poached chicken in the dish. Next was Martha's Perfect Mac and Cheese followed by slow-cooked ribs. Everything turned out perfectly except the ribs but I think that is just because ribs are not my thing, I have officially given up making them.
Transporting the dish is a little awkward because there are no grips on the side but it is definitely do-able. The lid is not on very tightly but it does not slide or wobble. As a result it was quite easy to remove to allow for browning which ended up being a big help. I was impressed that I could cook these in the dish with zero oil and there was no issue with food sticking to the casserole dish. I prefer to hand wash big dishes to save space in my dishwasher but I did put it through my dishwasher last night and it came out gleaming like new.
My one disappointment was finding out that you can not cook the stoneware on the stovetop at all. Oh well, I will live. As a result I will just brown meat and veggies in a stainless steel skillet and then transfer the food to the casserole dish. No big deal. Although it is not safe on the stove it is safe in the dishwasher, oven, microwave, fridge and freezer. Nice!
I do worry about breaking it and chipping it but so far it has done extremely well. It is tougher than I am! Normally I do not care about aesthetics but I love how beautiful this dish and does it ever gleam. The dish is very easy to clean even by hand, the design and colour are so appealing and I absolutely adore that each casserole dish is uniquely glazed so mine is one of a kind.
Stoneware has always appealed to me. Rustic, charming and a healthy cooking vessel choice, this was the right product for me. Believe it or not, this is my first real casserole dish with a top and everything. I can not believe what I have been missing! I would proudly serve a boeuf bourguignon to friends and family at a special celebration from this casserole dish. It is elegant and feels like home. I give this product four and a half out of five wooden spoons.

I just couldn't design a cookware line without adding a collection of beautiful oven-to-table stoneware.They're essential for some of my favorite recipes, like sweet and savory pies, quick breads and meatloaf, and of course, casseroles galore.I like how they look and feel just like hand-thrown pottery, and the raised swirl pattern makes my heart sing!
