    Top Pick

    The Le Creuset Stoneware Heritage Set features small and medium size dishes. We wish Le Creuset would allow you to buy the smailer size individually, but for now, they must be bought as a set that includes a small size and a medium size.

    Even with that limitation, though, these are the clear standout.

    With a capacity of 18 ounces and a square 5-inch x 5-inch shape, the smaller dish is the perfect size for individual portions of classics of savory casseroles and other dishes where you’d want to maximize the surface area.

    Crafted from premium stoneware, these dishes ensure excellent heat distribution for uniform browning and even cooking without any hot spots. Their superior heat retention keeps food warm or cold for serving, adding convenience to mealtime.

    The colorful glaze is not only visually appealing but also nonporous, non-reactive, scratch-resistant, and resistant to stains and flavor absorption, ensuring long-lasting durability and easy maintenance.
