Le Creuset Stoneware 16-Ounce French Onion Soup Bowl, Cobalt

Sleek and stylish, this French-onion soup bowl by Le Creuset brings both beauty and versatility to any kitchen collection. The charming 16-ounce bowl, which measures approximately 6-2/5 by 4-1/5 by 2-1/2 inches, provides a cylindrical shape with a flat base and tall sides--perfect for keeping soup hot at the table. Use it for a variety of favorite soup recipes, including the classic French Onion--complete with caramelized onions, flavorful broth, and a hearty slice of French bread. Made from durable stoneware, the bowl features a hard-wearing, impermeable finish fired at temperatures as high as 2192 degrees F. With a porosity level of less than 1 percent, the bowl blocks moisture absorption, so there's no chipping, cracking, crazing, or rippling along the interior to worry about. Its non-porous construction also resists odors, scratching, and staining for hygienic use and optimal cooking performance. Even more, its high-quality enamel protects against metal marks and other damage, which means it's safe for cutting on with knives. Best of all, the colorful glaze on the exterior makes the bowl fun to mix and match with other coordinating Le Creuset pieces (sold separately), while a neutral-colored glaze on the inside offers a pleasing contrast and an optimal palette for food presentation. And thanks to its unmatched thermal resistance from -65 degrees F to 500 degrees F, the bowl moves gracefully from the microwave or oven (or under the broiler) to the table for serving to the refrigerator or freezer for storing leftovers. The bowl comes equipped with a uniquely shaped, easy-grip handle, and it can safely go in the dishwasher for quick cleanup.
