Our favorite baking dishes 🔥

For our own casserole recipes, we prefer to use a ceramic baking dish like the Appolia baking dish from Peugeot. Ceramic ensures that your dishes cook slowly and evenly right to the center. In addition, it retains heat well, keeping your casserole warm for up to 30 minutes on the table. Peugeot baking dishes are resistant to temperatures from -25°C to 250°C and are safe for the oven, microwave, freezer, and dishwasher. Besides casserole recipes, these dishes are also perfect for potato gratins, fish fillets, or desserts.
