The Right Dish + Lid Set
**Emile Henry The Right Dish + Lid — Clay**
**The baker that asked for a lid — and finally got one**
The Right Dish has been a staple in French kitchens for years. The lid is the new chapter. Together, they make a covered baker that goes from freezer to oven to table without fuss, keeps food warm while you set the table, and looks composed doing all of it. This is the set — dish and lid, in Emile Henry's signature Clay.
**The details**
The Right Dish is made from Emile Henry's HR Ceramic® — a proprietary high-resistance formula developed in Marcigny, France, where the company has been firing Burgundian clay since 1850. HR Ceramic isn't just beautiful; it's engineered for the kind of use a workhorse baker actually sees. It resists mechanical shocks well enough to be used in restaurants, handles dramatic temperature swings (straight from the freezer to a 500°F oven), and is glazed to resist both fading and scratching. The color stays vivid year after year through dishwasher cycles.
At 14.25 × 9 inches with a 3.1-quart capacity, this is a generous baker — right-sized for a lasagna that serves six, a deep pan of scalloped potatoes, a whole roasted chicken, or a fruit cobbler that looks like it belongs on a French farmhouse table. The Clay glaze is the kind of warm off-white that makes everything it holds look intentional.
The lid is remarkably thoughtful in its design. Ultra-flat and thin, it sits flush on the dish without looking heavy. The branded knob is flat on top — which means you can stack another dish on it. During service, set it upside down on the knob and it rests cleanly on the table without making a mess of your surface. For steam cooking (what the French call *à l'étouffée*), place the lid on and the enclosed environment keeps moisture in — braises, gratins, and casseroles come out notably more tender.
Both dish and lid are dishwasher safe. Handcrafted in Marcigny, France. 10-year guarantee.
