"Harold Import" Porcelain Souffle * The round shape of the classic HIC Porcelain Soufflé Dish uniformly distributes heat. * One of the tricks to making a perfect soufflé is using a round, straight-sided dish with an outset lip at the rim. * The straight sides of the dish push expanding egg whites in the desired, upward direction. * The outset lip at the rim reduces contact of batter to the dish, allowing your soufflé to continue to rise above the rim without sticking and rising off-kilter. * In addition to soufflé, the dish can also be used as an individual gratin, casserole or as a baked custard dish for panna cotta, crème brulee and flan. * The dish is also the perfect size for salt, fresh minced herbs and other mise-en-place (individual prepped items) you need within easy reach of the stove. * HIC Porcelain is oven, broiler, microwave, freezer and dishwasher safe.
