Product Description:
It's every cook's most versatile pan: the cast iron baking dish/roaster. Make everything from roasted potatoes and vegetables to flawless brownies and fruit squares. Because the cast iron distributes heat evenly and efficiently, your dishes will brown perfectly - no more burnt edges or soggy corners. Presenting your favorite roast meats, pastas or desserts has never been simpler with Le Creuset's bakeware. The Roasters are available in 8" x 12" and 10" x 14" sizes and feature wide shallow shapes to allow maximum exposure of the food to the heat source.The wide, shallow shape of these pieces exposes the maximum surface area of the food to the heat source, whether it be all around heat in the oven or under the broiler. They can also be used on the stovetop for frying. For best results, in cooking roast meats, poultry or poaching fish the dish should be filled almost to the brim, so the top browns and crisps quickly, leaving the food beneath moist.These dishes are ideal for making pasta dishes such as lasagna and baking delicious pies and desserts such as fruit cake and gingerbread. Great for pastry, the cast iron spreads the heat evenly and well with no soggy middles to pies or tarts. Also excellent for marinating - the surface will not spoil or discolor. They make elegant serving dishes, too.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Love It
I love Le Creuset products. They cook very evenly. They can be heavy once the food is in the pot, but very worth it. I am hoping to expand my Le Creuset baking ware in the future. I have three products of theirs now and love them. I highly recommend this product.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - great for lasagna
I debated the merits of a cast iron versus a stoneware baker with the sales person at Le Creuset, and her recommendation of cast iron ws on the mark.I use this pan mostly for lasagna.While some complain of its weight, the even heating and heat retention are worth it.
