Editorial Review:
Serve red pepper hummus, cool gazpacho or a warm roasted pepper medley in this quaint stoneware 13-oz. Jade Petite Pepper Casserole. They make spectacular serving dishes when you want to impress the guests and also make original gifts.
Part of the winsome Garden Collection, this Le Creuset petite bell pepper casserole is a charming way to serve soup servings, individual entrées, or dips on the buffet. Crafted from durable stoneware with a sculptural shape, it distributes and retains heat beautifully, and its handsome, nonporous enamel surface makes for easy serving and washing. Heavy-duty for years of use, the piece is impervious to lingering odors and does not stain, chip, or craze with normal wear.
One of the reasons Le Creuset stoneware is so popular is that it is designed for simplifying the steps from prep to cleanup. Use this dish to marinate in the fridge, bake in the oven, warm in the microwave, and store in the freezer--everything but cook on the stovetop. Measuring just 4-1/2 by 4-1/2 inches, the petite casserole comes in several fresh colors with neutral interiors. To create a real table of plenty, look for other Garden Collection casseroles shaped like pumpkins, tomatoes, and garlic bulbs. --Emily Bedard

Great Gift Item:
I bought a set of these as a gift for my sister for her birthday last year and she loves them. When we visited at Christmas, she served a variety of dips in them along with fresh vegetables and chips for an appetizer. The size was perfect for that use. She also told me she uses them to serve first course cups of soup at dinner.
I just purchased a second set today for my brother, knowing he will love them too.
Cute but very small:
Yet another cute product from Le creuset. But it is rather small and I dont find many uses for it. Another thing to note is this product is not made in france but made in taiwan. I got it free with another le creuset product and I am not sure if I would have bought it for the 25$ price tag otherwise.
Delightful to bring to the table:
This beautiful casserole is great for cooking the side veg for dinner and it comes to the table (perhaps with soup) and is very attractive. It also is nice for oatmeal in the morning. The surface enamel is inert, allowing you to cook and not absorb metals or strange plastics in your food. The cast iron inside holds heat and distributes heat well. These are luxurious pots, and make stellar bride presents, housewarming gifts. This small pot is best for small amounts of foods, but we tend to use it... more info
cute & heat distribution unsurpassed but......:
I am a big fan of Le Creuset products in general and own many pieces. I like this pepper, however the biggest plus are really the aesthetics, and of course, the heat distribution. Doesn't clean well. I have a collection of these.. pumpkin, the red heart, tomato and another pepper. They are somehow nicer to diplay than actually use. They do not accommodate a large enough quantity of food. Maybe Boeuf Bourgongne for 2? It is difficult to maneuver once it is in the oven because there are no handles and it is... more info
