Emile Henry Flame Top 6-1/3-Quart Oval Oven, Red Review

I did a lot of checking and lifting of various dutch ovens/casseroles/stew pots by Le Creuset, Staub, Emeril Lagasse, and many others. But when I picked this 6.3 quart oven, I was pleasantly surprised to find how much lighter it is than the others. I bought it from Amazon and cooked with it the other night, and the results were delicious. I cooked everything on a gas stove. It browns meat very well, retains heat evenly, and the braising dish that I made came out perfect. All of my guests ate in silence to enjoy the meal and they usually don't do that! I also bought it because it can be used both on the stove and in the oven. I look forward to using it often. Highly recommend it!

Emile Henry Flame Top cookware, a technological innovation. An innovation in ceramics technology, Emile Henry's new line of Burgundy Clay Flame-Top ceramics products work directly on a gas flame or an electric or halogen hob without a diffuser, without any fear of cracking or breaking.Much lighter, (30%), than many types of comparable metal cookware products, Flame-Top is microwave and dishwasher-safe, cleans up very easily, is extremely strong and durable, goes under the broiler, and can go directly from a freezer or a refrigerator to a hot oven to the table, where it will retain the cooking heat for a very long time. This recent innovation from Emile Henry is a break-through in ceramics technology. Unlike most metal cookware products, Flame-Top cookware can sit on a very hot open flame for an extended period of time without any ingredients in the cook pot, and they will not crack, discolor or break. Perfect for braising, browning and slow cooking due to the incredibly gentle heat distribution properties of Burgundy Clay, Flame-Top products cook evenly and thoroughly when used on top of the stove, in the oven or even in the microwave.Enhancing this gentle cooking action are raised dots on the underneath side of each lid that evenly distribute evaporated juices directly back into the cooking food.This self-basting technique produces a more thoroughly cooked, tender and moist dish than with traditional lids, which force liquids to run down the sides of the pot, and which contribute to uneven cooking. Emile Henry Flame-Top ceramic cookware is light and versatile, and better brings out the flavors of all cooked foods.

Easy to clean, great heat retention, stove top to oven, dishwasher safe. It does it all.
This is a large pot and worth every penny. The clay construction makes it much lighter than
enameled cast iron (think Le Creuset). LOVE this pot. I'll get more in other sizes.

I researched Dutch Ovens on-line and in several cookware shops. Looked at Le Crueset, Staub, and Emile Henry. With some hesitation I ordered this one from Amazon. I did not believe that a ceramic one would really brown ingredients well the way that braises require. Believe me, it does an excellent job on meat, poultry, and vegetables. I have made Beef Bourguignon and Coq a Vin so far. The pot is a joy to use, the shape and size is perfect, food does not stick or burn as it is cooking, and after cooling and a brief soaking it cleans beautifully. This Dutch Oven is not light weight but is is much lighter than the cast iron ones and I do not need to worry potential rusting or enamel chipping in the future. I expect that you do need to be more careful to avoid sudden temperature changes such as putting a really hot pot on a cold counter. Note that the first one I ordered was not packed well and arrived broken in many pieces. Amazon promptly and courteously sent a new one and a postage free label to send back the broken one. I am sorry to see that Amazon no longer offers this item directly.

Emile Henry Flame Top Round Oven Review

Emile Henry Flame Top Round Oven

I had put off buying a dutch oven for quite some time, just because they are always SO heavy and SO expensive (the good ones, anyway).
I was at Sur la Table looking at dutch ovens when I lifted the lid off a Emile Henry Flame Top and very nearly threw the lid backwards over my shoulder because I expected it to be about twice as heavy as it actually was. I was dubious; a ceramic dutch oven? It was on sale so I bought it, thinking that I could return it if I didn't like it.
I don't like it. I LOVE it. So far everything has cooked absolutely perfectly in it. The ceramic retains and radiates heat better then metal, excellently searing pot roasts and then simmering evenly on the very lowest gas heat setting. If my Flame Top went missing today I'd buy another one without hesitation. This is 100% heirloom cookware: it's going to be in your family, being used, for a long time.
To address the complaint that the Flame Top retains odors, all I can say is that I never had this problem, but with two caveats. The first is that the reviewer didn't state if she seasoned her Flame Top as recommended by the manufacturer (instructions are both in the box and on the website). The ceramic glaze needs to be "set" by simmering either milk or water with dry rice in it before it's first real use. If this step is skipped and the pot is instead seasoned with tomato sauce, then I imagine there would be a problem. The second issue is that of tomato sauce in general. Highly acidic foods cooked in any lightly porous cookware are going to leave an odor behind, at least for a little while, that's why tomato-based sauces should always be cooked in steel. Like I said, I've cooked a range of stinky, odorous foods in my Henry pot and it doesn't smell at all.

We got these plates (along with dinner plates and bowls) to replace another set that didn't hold up well. These are substantial - but not too heavy. They do not get hot in the microwave, like some other plates I've had. The rim is nice because if you have something with sauce, it stays put on the plate. I haven't had them long so I can't say how they hold up, but for now, I really like them and am happy with my purchase.

I had already bought the 5 quart boat baker, and I really liked that, so I was sure I would enjoy this little piece. It's very cute, and so functional. I love that I can put it safely in the dishwasher. The glaze is really pretty, on all my pieces (I have the red currant as well as the pineapple). I'm very pleased with Appolia ceramics.
