Emile Henry - Oval stewpot 6 L

Thanks to our innovative Flame ceramic, our stewpots offer all the advantages of cooking in ceramic: slow, even cooking which brings out the flavours of your ingredients. How can you brown the outside of your meat but keep the flesh moist? Or simply simmer meat gently for hours ? Choose a round or oval stewpot in which you place your ingredients over a low temperature, covered with the lid which makes sure the condensation circulates inside thanks to the dots underneath. Our range of stewpots is designed for use on all types of stove top (with an induction disk for induction hobs) and in the traditional oven. Easy to clean, they are dishwasher safe and will not lose their colour.

For Flame Top - 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.

How to use your Flame dish and get best results

Our line of Flame products will enable you to creat slow, natural cooking thanks to the technical qualities of the Flame ceramic. For best results, follow the instructions below.

Before using for the first time

• Remove all stickers and labels on your tagine, using a solvent if necessary, then clean.
• Bring a little milk to the boil in a stewpot, pour it into the base of the tagine and leave to cool before cleaning.

During the preparation and cooking

• Emile Henry Flame® products can be used on all heat sources: gas, electricity, ceramic (halogen, radiant), and with an induction disk for induction hobs.
• Our Flame® products are also designed for use in a traditional or microwave oven (thanks to the absence of any metal).
• All items in the Flame® range can also be put in the freezer at a temperature of -20°C/0°F and are highly resistant to thermal shocks: you can thus take your stewpot directly from the freezer to the oven.
• Flame® products can also be used on the barbeque grill.

For best results

• The heat diffusion of our Flame® ceramic is such that high temperatures are rarely necessary. For natural cooking, always start on a low heat for the first 5 minutes and then increase the temperature if necessary.
• Always cook over a heat source adapted to the size of the base of your dish. A heat source which is too small or too large compared to your dish will not give best results.
• When cooking meat or simmering, the meat juice can caramelize in the bottom of the dish, which brings flavour to the finished recipe. Scrape the bottom of the dish with a wooden spoon in order to mix it into the sauce.
• Our highly resistant glaze enables you to use metallic utensils without any danger of scratching the dish.

After cooking

• Thanks to the highly resistant glaze, our Flame® products allow you to cut and serve directly in the dish.
• We advise you to serve your Flame® dish directly on the table, as it will keep the heat for longer thanks to the refractory properties of our ceramic.
• Our Flame® products are designed to be cleaned in the dishwasher. In the case of any burnt-on food, fill the dish with a mixture of white vinegar and hot water and bring to the boil before cleaning.
• Our Flame® ceramic is very durable and will bring excellent culinary results. However, it can break if dropped or knocked violently. Be careful when manipulating your dish.
