Sturdy, large, and versatile cast iron casserole dish praised for even cooking, attractive design, and great value. Ideal for baking, stews, and family meals; some note stickiness and heaviness.

Much used.
The first one I bought had very slight enamel damage so I returned it and got another which has been used a lot and is great, cooking things evenly and retaining heat. It cleans really easily too.

I can advise the following for the Habitat 5.3 Litre Cast Iron Casserole Dish - Green:
The enamel-coated dish retains and spreads heat evenly, making it perfect for slow cooking while trapping moisture and flavour. Due to this it does not have a self basting lid.

Hello there,
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for the Habitat 5.3 Litre Cast Iron Casserole Dish - Red: The enamel is a vitreous, glass-based coating, but it contains other oxides (such as boron, aluminum, sodium, calcium) in addition to silica. The vibrant surface colors (orange, blue, green, etc.) are created by pigments. Therefore, although fundamentally glassy in nature, the coating is not 100% pure glass—it is a glass matrix blended with metal oxides.
Thank you for using Q&A.
