As beautiful as it is functional, the Heritage line of stoneware bakeware provides superior heat distribution and temperature retention, making it ideal for baked goods and roasted dishes. Glazed in a vivid gradient teal finish that shimmers like the sunlit waters of the Mediterranean, these three dense stoneware baking dishes resist scratching, staining, cracking and crazing. Their nearly non-stick interiors effortlessly release foods and clean up easily. The rectangular bakers are helpfully sized for marinating meat, roasting root vegetables and baking bread, enchiladas and fruit crumbles. Crafted with ridged handles, the baking pans go beautifully from oven to table for a timeless presentation and nest compactly when not in use.Revered by both professional chefs and home cooks since its 1925 debut, Le Creuset's classic cookware is prized for its utilitarian beauty and unsurpassed heat retention.
