I’ve acquired a earthenware pot with an internal glaze and hollow handle… I’ve only ever used metal pots for cooking, so not sure how best to use this!
I presume it can go in the oven but not on hob/direct heat? Any ideas on top temperature in the oven?
And what would you cook in it? Mostly I’d assume stews but without a lid I’d be worried it’d dry out? And putting foil over it seems to defeat the object… might as well use a casserole dish!
Odd. It looks like the mothership version of the little bowls I serve my onion soup in. I’ve never seen a big one like that before. I’d probably use it for casseroles, I guess.
It can go in the oven, but not on the stovetop, and I wouldn’t put it in at more than 400 degrees, 425 tops. It can probably take more heat, but I wouldn’t do it just to be safe. You don’t have a lid for it I presume? If not, then you can’t use it as a Dutch oven, but you can most definitely do casseroles in it.
It does look like the serving bowl from a soup set, so I imagine that’s what it’s initial purpose was.
