We are excited to share and reveal one of the French brands in our August Box, Emile Henry.
Rooted in the heart of Burgundy, this esteemed French company has been synonymous with exceptional ceramic cookware since its creation in 1850. Renowned for creating superior ovenware and bakeware, Emile Henry remains a family-owned enterprise, meticulously crafting each piece with Burgundy clay.
Burgundy is a region famed for its exquisite wines but also lends its mineral-rich limestone soils to the creation of Emile Henry’s distinctive clay cookware. This special clay is the secret behind the heat diffusion and retention of their products, ensuring even cooking and enhancing the flavors and aromas of dishes.
Emile Henry’s dedication to quality is evident in the precision of their designs. From baking dishes to pizza stones, every product is crafted with the perfect dimensions and depth, catering to both professional chefs and home cooks. At Emile Henry, you can find loaf pans, casserole dishes, stew pots, handcrafted pie dishes, tagines, and braziers, each piece promising unparalleled performance in the kitchen.
Their commitment to excellence extends to the innovative features of their products, which showcase impressive thermal shock resistance, allowing their ovenware to transition directly from freezer to oven, broiler, or microwave without any risk of cracking. The robust, non-porous surfaces resist chipping and scratching, making cleaning effortless and ensuring remarkable durability; all items are dishwasher-safe and free from lead and cadmium. Additionally, the glazes, available in a variety of colors, are resistant to crazing, discoloration, and fading, maintaining their vibrant appearance over time.
We can’t wait to share what we have included from Emile Henry in our August with our Box N°31. Be sure to reserve your Box today to not miss out!
