Description
A very versatile size cazuela -- you might use it to make a small paella, or similar rice dish. Cazuelas, terra cotta dishes, have been used in Spain for literally thousands of years. Our cazuelas are unique in that they are made by potters who follow a Roman formula that has been employed for centuries in this area of Spain. Although terra cotta is nothing more complicated than moistened clay, low fired with an interior glaze so it can hold liquids, this particular technique that they follow involves including small pebbles in the mix which strengthens the bowl and increases its heat retention. La Tienda is the only source for this high quality cazuela in America. The glaze on the cazuela is perfectly safe for all applications -- it contains no lead. We provide directions for a simple seasoning (essentially soaking in water for a few hours) which renders the cazuela good for stovetop, oven or microwave. When cooking with terra cotta, the key is to increase heat gradually.

Customer Reviews
a wonderful cazuelaaninterestinglife
This is a very large, gorgeous cazuela. I am hoping to serve my family and friends lots of golden arroz con pollo in this vessel, and am also looking forward to trying lots of different recipes in it. With all my new equipment, cooking is becoming a joy again! If anyone has any favorite dishes made in a cazuela I would love to hear of them(-;Also, I have to thank the Tienda folks for great customer service. My first cazuela arrived broken. I called Tienda customer service and they sent out a new one immediately, which arrived in perfect condition! Thank you again La Tienda!
Great CazuelaFeelin' like a Movie Star
Nicely made. Shipment was fast. There were no curing instructions in the box & had to look up on internet, but it all worked out. This is a great dish - especially to make Anne Burrell's garlic chicken with couscous!
Gift for my GodsonJ. Zarwell
He wanted one for Christmas and loves it. Perfect size and works as well on the stovetop as it does in the oven.
