Calphalon Contemporary Stainless-Steel Lasagna Pan Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bottom of pan is stamped 10 x 14 inches.
About the same size as the glass baking dish which is 9 x 12.
Pan is very light...no where near the 7 pounds in the description.
Definitely less than 3 pounds.
Finish is the worst I have seen in stainless steel ( dries with water spots )
The selling price should have been less than $29.
I am a fan of Calphalon but this item looks more like counterfeit.
I will keep it and use it, but would NOT recommend it or give it away as a gift. Would not buy again if this one got lost or stolen

HIC Porcelain 106-Ounce Casserole Dish with Lid Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The HIC Porcelain is heavy and this 106-ounce casserole dish is VERY heavy indeed. I like the dish, and the pattern would match anything else you already have. I only have one complaint in that the dish did not have care instructions included. I realize that the write-up states the dish is oven, microwave, and broiler safe, but I was surprised that it lacked any instructions like other bakeware has. I went to the internet to find more about the HIC brand. One place stated that it's oven proof to 350 degrees, and another said 400 degrees. A broiler gets hotter than that, so I don't know how accurate those descriptions were. It also does not have appropriate uses stamped on the bottom like other brands do (microwave, oven safe, etc.). But, all in all, I like the dish and plan on purchasing other sizes.

HIC Porcelain 10-Inch Au Gratin, Set of Three Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bought these last year and just love them. They are thin, so they heat quickly and easily. They are very smooth, so cleanup is also just great, even for burned on food. We cook salmon fillets in them and use them at least once every two weeks. I also bought some larger Corningware ovenware at the same time because I wanted larger sizes, but the Corningware is too thick and I hardly ever use them. That's why I'm ordering another set of the HIC porcelain au gratins. They are a wonderful, useful product.

CorningWare French White 2-1/2-Quart Round Casserole Dish with Glass Cover Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The original "French White" Corningware was made of Corning's famous pyroceramic glass, which could be used on the gas stove, put directly in the freezer, put under the broiler right from the freezer, and oh yes, also used in a microwave. And it was very unlikely to shatter if dropped. If you pounded on it with a hammer and nail you might have gotten it to break.
When World Kitchens bought the license from Corning, they decided to halt production of a line of cookware that would take anything and last forever, and dupe customers, especially brides, into thinking the stoneware "French White" was the same thing as the wonderful French White pyroceramic cookware previously available to their mothers and sisters.
The pattern is very attractive and can be used with any decor, and they do offer many sizes, but this stuff is not, repeat, really not, what people mean when they say "Corningware."
Le Creuset can do most of the above mentioned, but it being metal you cannot use it in the microwave. Stoneware cannot go on top of the stove, and repeated trips from the freezer to the oven will eventually cause it to craze and crack. And stoneware will also chip, and break if dropped, etc. Pyrex glassware cannot go on the gas stove although you can take it from the freezer to the oven, and also microwave it.
The only product which could do anything was pyroceramic, and World Kitchens has chosen to remove it from the market because it is "too good."
They have recently brought back a few of the old square shapes, with the Cornflower, or plain white, calling it "vintage," but the French White shape is not making an appearance yet. If you want it, email them and ask for it!
Meanwhile, get Le Creuset for cooking and roasting (yes it is expensive and heavy but it lasts forever and cooks beautifully), and reheat things in Pyrex in the microwave. Both will tolerate moving suddenly from freezer to heat source.

Emile Henry 13-by-10-Inch Lasagna Baker, Cerise Red Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)One of the reasons that I started looking for an alternative to my old stanby 13x9 Pyrex baking dish was because it was not broiler safe. I bought the E.H. 13x10 dish a year ago for this specific purpose, and I have been very pleased with it so far.
The E.H. dish is slightly wider and deeper than my Pyrex dish, which is nice because now I don't have to worry about food spilling over the sides while it is cooking in the oven (most recipes call for a 9x13 dish).
The E.H. dish is also bottom rack dishwasher safe. Because the surfaces are smooth like a Pyrex, it could also be easily cleaned with a scrub brush and a dish rag. However, because the E.H. dish weighs 5 lbs.4.2 oz. (vs. the Pyrex of 3 lbs.9.9 oz.), I would definitely recommend using the dishwasher.
One reviewer mentioned using aluminum foil to line the dish before cooking. I'm not sure if this was to prevent burning? Is so, why not just add a little sauce to the bottom of the dish, as you would with a Pyrex dish? Nothing mysterious here.
Another nice feature about the E.H. dish is that it keeps food hotter out of the oven much longer than the Pyrex.
It should also be noted that the very bottom is not smooth, like the rest of the dish, so take care not to drag it over the counters like you would with a Pyrex dish.
At $60, this dish is a better bargain than the smaller E.H. designer version sold at the William-Sonoma stores. To me, this dish is prosciutto on a spam budget, and is a good buy.
Do not be afraid to use this dish as the manufacturer recommends!

Marcigny, a small town nestling between the hills of Southern Burgundy, has been home to Emile Henry for the past 150 years. Faithful to its origins, the entire production is carried out here. Thanks to its clay, rich in refractory properties, Burgundy has remained a fertile area for potters, passing on their savoir-faire from generation to generation. Clay, a natural and noble material, has been used since the mists of the time to cook or preserve food. While respecting the traditional techniques, Emile Henry has introduced technological improvements (Ceradon ) so that the dishes are more resistant to mechanical and thermal shock. Strong, durable, all Emile Henry pieces can be taken directly from the freezer to the hot oven, can go under a broiler and is microwave, freezer and dishwasher safe. The natural clay is unsurpassed for conducting and retaining heat. All pieces are perfect for everyday use and carry a 3 year warranty against defects.
