Emile Henry Oven Dish Argile - 42 x 27 x 9 cm / 4.45 Litres

Forget unevenly cooked oven dishes and meals that cool too quickly: with the Emile Henry Oven Dish Argile, you can serve a lasagne, gratin, or roast chicken that is perfectly cooked from edge to centre - and stays that way. This is the baking dish you buy to never replace.

Why this baking dish changes everything for your oven dishes

• Even cooking to the centre - The HR®-ceramics distribute heat so efficiently that even the core of your lasagne cooks perfectly, without dry edges or raw spots.
• Stays warm on the table - After removing from the oven, the dish retains heat, allowing you to serve at a leisurely pace without rushing.
• From freezer straight to oven - Cooking ahead? No problem. This dish goes straight from the freezer to the oven - ideal for busy weeknight dinners.
• Scratch and impact resistant glazed surface - Cutting with a metal knife? Go ahead. The glaze withstands it without complaint.
• Suitable for oven, grill, microwave, and dishwasher - Versatile and user-friendly, from the first preparation step to washing up.
• 10-year guarantee - Emile Henry stands for quality that lasts for years. This is a smart investment for your kitchen.

HR®-ceramics: French craftsmanship since 1850

Emile Henry has been making its baking dishes for over 170 years in Burgundy, from natural clay sourced from the French soil. No gimmick, no marketing story - just a craft refined over generations. The HR®-ceramics (High Resistance) is the result of that long-standing expertise: a material that absorbs heat evenly and releases it slowly, allowing your dish to continue cooking as it should.

Each piece is hand-finished and personally inspected. You can tell not only by the appearance - that warm, earthy Argile colour instantly gives your table a Mediterranean feel - but also by how the dish feels. Sturdy, reliable, honest. The handles are just right: wide enough to safely lift the dish from a hot oven, even with oven gloves on.

Large enough for a true family meal

With dimensions of 42 x 27 x 9 cm and a capacity of 4.45 litres, this is the baking dish for impressive meals. Think of a full lasagne for six people, a rich gratin dauphinois that leaves the whole table silent, or a slowly roasted leg of lamb surrounded by rosemary and garlic. The depth of 9 cm ensures that your sauces and moisture stay well within the dish - no dry end result, just succulent, juicy dishes.

And because the dish is so beautiful, you don’t need to hide it behind a serving dish. Just go from oven to table - that’s the way. Guests can taste the difference, and they can see it too.

Meal prep has never been easier

Assembling a large lasagne on Sunday, freezing it in the same dish, and popping it straight into the oven during the week: this is the power of the Emile Henry Oven Dish. No transferring, no extra baking trays, no hassle. The dish can withstand extreme temperature fluctuations - from -20 °C to 270 °C - without cracking or breaking. That’s not a given with ceramics, but with Emile Henry, it’s the standard.

And if you’re wondering if it’s grill-safe? Yes, it is. The dish is also suitable for use under the oven grill, so that cheesy crust on top of your gratin becomes golden brown and crispy. Just as it should be.

After the meal? Just pop it in the dishwasher. It doesn’t get easier than that.

💡 Cookinglife Tip: Let the dish rest for five minutes after baking before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute and keeps your lasagne or oven dish beautifully shaped when serving - and you can taste the difference.
