Le Creuset Heritage Enameled Cast-Iron 1-Quart Oval Au Gratin, Cherry



Small, but Good
I agree with the previous reviewer: this is small. I also got mine on sale. But I use it often to bake small amounts of vegetables (like a few roast carrots or potatoes). It's nice when I want a small side dish to go with dinner--just toss the vegetables in olive oil, add salt, and throw it in the oven. And because of the enameled coating, this pan cleans up like a breeze :)

Still the best...
There's a reason Le Creuset's classic combination of enamel over cast iron is still in production: IT WORKS. I love everything about this pan: the oval au gratin creates a large surface on which to create a beautiful crust on whatever dish you are making, while the heavy bottom protects the tender insides from charring. The 1-quart size is perfect when cooking for two. I only wish I had found this one sooner.

CAN'T GO WRONG WITH LE CREUSET
I love this pan. I have a recipe for a warm Caprese Gratin, a cooked version of Caprese salad. This Au-Gratin pan is just the right size and perfect for this recipe.
This recipe is the reason I bought this pan. It heats evenly and it can go right from the oven to the table, it keeps the recipe nice and warm throughout the meal by holding in the heat.
