Care & Use 

Cleaning: 

Emile Henry products are very easy to clean by hand or dishwasher. Burnt-on residue may be removed by pre-soaking the cookware for 10 minutes. 

 

Cracks in glaze: 

Heating the dish: Slow heating is recommended. We do not recommend pre-heating an empty pot (except when using a no-knead bread or bread recipes). 

 

Food cooked in clay dishes takes longer to heat than food cooked in metal ones due to differences in heat diffusion - usually around ten minutes longer.  

 

Once on the table, your dish will retain its heat and thus keep your dish warm for a longer period of time. 

 

Emile Henry products can be used with gas, electric and halogen heat sources. (Excluding the Pizza Stone & Grilling/Baking Stone) 

 

Resistance Against Mechanical Shocks:

During everyday use, there are many opportunities to bang a dish or a set of plates. Particularly resistant to shocks, our ceramic is even used in restaurants!

Resistance Against Temperature Changes: 

A dish or stew pot should be able to withstand wide variations in temperature. Our ceramics allow our products to be taken directly from the freezer to the hot oven (+250°C/500°F).

Resistance Against Fading Colours: 

Heat, the dishwasher or sharp instruments will all have an aging effect on a product. Our glazes are particularly resistant to the dishwasher and the most aggressive of detergents.

 

A wide range of ovenware made from HR Ceramic (High Resistance), for use in the oven up to 270C (520F).
