I had been searching for the ideal vessel to hold kosher salt on my kitchen counter, and this petite casserole is sturdy enough to do the trick. I was disappointed that this item isn't made in France like other Le Creuset products -it's from southeast Asia -but it still captures the essential Le Creuset style and adds some welcome color against my dark granite countertops.

I ordered this item with some trepidation as it was not well reviewed. My sense was the reviews were the result of initial color mis-shipments and it turns out that I received the blue item I ordered.

To be sure, it is barely larger than an ashtray but the design and color perfectly match other Le Creuset pieces. It would be good for custards or condiments or servings of fruit, vegatables, custard or pudding (yes, I know this is not conventional). Basically it is well priced for a quality product. It show both utility and decor. And earns its five stars.

Best Deals for Le Creuset Stoneware Petite Casserole

I love Le Creuset cookware and when I discovered these little 8 ounce pots, I knew they would fill many uses. These petite stoneware covered pots are oven-proof, so you can bake individual dishes in them such as custards, pies and tarts, rice and pasta dishes. I also serve soups in them hot or cold. The lid helps retain the temperature of the contents. I also serve cheese spreads, hummus, and many other condiments or sauces in these little pots. You can create a tray of appetizers, snacks, and hors d'ouvres, using one or several different colored pots on a tray amid crackers and bread or whatever you choose. I have all the colors Le Creuset makes. On the Fourth of July I prepared a simple "red, white, and blue" presentation of dips and salsas. Whether you serve a group of food items or individual servings, the size is right. You will love these versatile little containers.

Honest reviews on Le Creuset Stoneware Petite Casserole

As an admitted Le Creuset devotee, this was a little splurge to store sea salt in while keeping it covered next to the stovetop. However, since receiving this charming little casserole, I can see the potential for all sorts of culinary uses for it as it is basically a very large ramekin with handles and a lid. I plan on ordering the 4-piece-set with cookbook as they are the perfect size to serve individual portions of oven-prepared dishes such as au gratin potatoes, apple/cherry crumble or french onion soup(at 8 ounce capacity, I would call this size a "cup" rather than a "bowl" of soup). It's also a great size for serving oatmeal in the morning for the kids! (Note that this is stoneware and not the cast iron version, so it is for oven use only and not for stovetop). Overall, a great little investment for a quality product with so many uses, especially if you like to serve smaller individual dishes at times. A nice addition to your Le Creuset collection!

There have been many good suggestions for using this adorable little pan, but I use mine daily to cook my steel-cut oatmeal. I can cook and eat out of the same pan, and if I am called away from my meal for any time, I cover it up with the lid to retain the heat. All of my cookware is Le Creuset, so obviously I'm a big fan of the brand. This little piece is so cute and so helpful for many things. Just love it.
