Cast iron cookware is a staple in every serious cook's kitchen because of its unparalleled ability to transfer and retain heat evenly. This long, shallow gratin is the ideal size for cooking fish, vegetable dishes and desserts, and it doubles as serveware that keeps the dish warm at the table. Perfect for baking hearty gratins and casseroles, this French favorite is designed to deliver a crispy brown crust atop an evenly cooked dish.

• 2 1/4-qt. cap.
