Emile Henry Burgundy Ceramic Bread/Potato Cooker

Emile Henry has been producing a wide range of high-quality ceramic cooking utensils in France since 1850. Our products, backed by a 10-year guarantee, are made from natural materials and designed and manufactured in Southern Burgundy, France. At the heart of our commitment is a controlled production process with minimal waste – the CO2 emissions from our workshops are particularly low thanks to our modern, energy-efficient firing techniques. Any waste generated is recycled, and the water used in production is filtered and reused.

The tradition of crafting Emile Henry products in Marcigny, southern Burgundy, has been passed down through generations. Each worker prepares the moulds, produces the dishes, and signs them with their initials – a testament to the quality and pride infused into every item. This sense of individual responsibility is a hallmark of our production.

One of our standout products is the Potato Pot, designed to gently and evenly cook a wide variety of vegetables at low temperatures, preserving their natural flavors and textures. Made from Flame ceramic, it can be used on gas, electric, halogen (with an induction disk), and oven cooking surfaces. The spherical shape ensures the heat is distributed uniformly. For best results, simply turn the pot every 15 minutes while cooking on the stovetop – your potatoes will emerge soft with a delightful crispy skin, and other vegetables will be cooked to perfection.

All Emile Henry products are proudly made in France using only natural materials and our proprietary Flame technology. They are safe for use in the oven, on the stovetop, and even on barbecue grills, and can seamlessly transition from the freezer to the oven or microwave and then straight to the table. The healthy, low-and-slow cooking approach brings out the best in the ingredients, while the highly resistant glaze allows for minimal use of added fats.

Weighing up to 30% less than heavy cast iron or metal cookware, Emile Henry pieces are easy to handle and clean – they are dishwasher-safe or can be hand-washed with soap and water. Underpinning our commitment to quality is a 10-year guarantee against manufacturing defects when used in a household environment.
