Why this gratin dishe earns its place
This round gratin dish from Vogue is made from cast iron and finished in orange, with handles and a stainless steel knob. Its 400ml capacity keeps it compact, and the 150mm diameter gives it a tidy footprint for serving or presentation.
The cast iron construction is the point of the piece. Vogue describes it as having excellent heat retaining properties and even heat distribution, which is exactly what you want from a traditional cast iron gratin dish.
The orange finish gives it a warmer look on the table, and it is explicitly described as suitable for attractive presentation. At just 0.7kg, it is lighter than the larger casseroles in the range, but still has the substance you expect from cast iron.
