Skeppshult Gratin Dish

Skeppshult Gratin Dish

Skeppshult of Sweden manufactures artisanal cast iron bakeware from strictly controlled raw materials in their factory in Småland. Made without harmful chemicals, their products have an exceptionally long life span, which explains how they can provide a 25 year cast iron warranty. Their natural and environmentally friendly cast iron baking dish is made without harmful chemicals and requires little maintenance.

Skeppshult's factory operates the only remaining foundry in Scandinavia making household products in cast iron. Many phases in the manufacturing are still pure hand craftsmanship and dependent upon great professional skill. Undergoing an average of ten quality control inspections before completion, your Skeppshult bakeware will withstand year after year of heavy use, metal utensils and high heat. Skeppshult products are nearly impossible to wear out. Pre-seasoned with organic canola oil, your Skeppshult baking dish arrives ready to use with a natural nonstick coating.

Magnetic cast iron bakeware heats quickly, disperses and stores heat better than other bakeware material, and works well with high heat. Thanks to these qualities, cast iron provides an excellent roasting surface.

Using the right products and traditional bakeware optimizes the beneficial iron content of our food. With iron anemia a challenge for many, the best way to help yourself while baking at home is through slow baking in combination with foods rich in iron, such as red meat, egg yolks and dark leafy greens. Many foods such as tomatoes also help to increase your iron intake by absorbing substantial quantities of minerals from cast iron bakeware. And while many makers use recycled cast iron of questionable safety, Skeppshult uses only virgin iron ore.

Carl E. Andersson established his foundry on the shores of the Nissan river in 1906. Much has happened since then, but Skeppshult's commitment to fine craftsmanship remains strong. In an age of mass-produced mediocrity, a Skeppshult pan is a connection to a timeless standard of excellence. A Skeppshult pan is both tool and inspiration, an investment you'll never regret.

Available in 8.5 or 10.25 inch diameter.
