The Le Creuset Heritage Stoneware Deep Baker with Lid is a 4.5-quart covered baker built for generous family meals. In classic White, this high-fired stoneware piece distributes heat evenly and retains it beautifully, making it ideal for roasting a whole chicken, braising lamb shanks, or baking deep casseroles.
The tight-fitting lid seals in steam and moisture, so meats come out fork-tender and bakery-style breads develop a crisp crust. Its deep walls provide ample room for bubbling sauces and one-pot meals. The durable porcelain-enamel glaze resists chips, scratches, and stains, and the beautiful exterior is made for serving.
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place seasoned chicken in the baker, add aromatics and a splash of liquid, then cover. Roast for 60-75 minutes, uncovering for the last 15 minutes to crisp the skin. The deep sides capture juices, and the lid keeps everything moist.
Although it's dishwasher safe, hand washing with mild soap is recommended to protect the exterior. Avoid using metal utensils and never place a cold stoneware dish directly into a hot oven. Allow to cool before cleaning.

For a golden, juicy bird, don't skip the step of searing the chicken briefly on the stovetop? Actually, you can't sear in this stoneware, so just season generously. Add a little broth to the bottom of the baker, cover, and roast low and slow. Uncovered for the last 15 minutes gives you skin that’s golden and crisp.
Try a hearty beef Bourguignon, a bubbling mac and cheese, or an overnight no-knead bread. The deep sides and even heat make this baker a true workhorse.
Stoneware is nonporous, meaning it won’t absorb juices or flavors. It heats gradually for even cooking, and its ability to hold heat means your food stays hot when served.

Hand wash recommended; it is dishwasher safe, but harsh detergents may dull the glaze over time.
This baker has replaced my old roasting pan. It's deep enough for a whole chicken, which I cooked last Sunday. The lid is tight and keeps the meat moist. The stoneware is heavy and maintains heat well. Cleanup was easy with a little soaking. I'm very pleased with my purchase.
Excellent baker, perfect for casseroles.
I used this to make a big lasagna for friends. It worked well, but it's really heavy. The white looks great on the table.
