Hammered Copper Baking Pan 12 in

12 Inch Hammered Copper Baking Dish – Small Tin-Lined Copper Gratin Dish

The Moda Bakır 12-inch copper baking dish is hand hammered from solid copper in Kahramanmaraş, Turkey, and lined with tin on the inside. Sized for 4 people, this small copper baking dish handles everyday gratins, roasted vegetables and side dishes, then goes straight from the oven to the table.

The Right Size Four

A 12-inch (30 cm) dish suits couples and small households. Smaller portions stay moist instead of spreading thin and drying out. It fits standard ovens and most countertop ovens, and it stores easily in a kitchen cabinet.

Oven to Table Serving Dish

There is no need to transfer food to a serving platter. The silver tin interior and warm copper exterior make this dish a centerpiece on the table. Copper also holds heat well, so food stays warm longer while you eat.

Solid Copper, Shaped by Hand

Each dish is hammered by hand from a single sheet of solid copper. It is not copper-plated steel or aluminum. Hammering hardens the metal for long life, and the hammer marks make every piece slightly different.

Even Heat, No Scorched Edges

Copper conducts heat better than cast iron, stainless steel or aluminum. Heat spreads evenly across the dish, so gratins brown on top without burning at the edges, and vegetables cook through at the same time.

Tin-Lined Interior

The interior is lined with pure tin, the classic cooking surface for copper cookware. Tin keeps food from touching bare copper. The exterior is natural copper, which you can polish bright or let develop a soft patina.

What to Cook in a 12 Inch Copper Dish

• Potato gratin and vegetable gratins
• Roasted vegetables for 2–4 people
• Baked eggs and shakshuka
• Mac and cheese and baked pasta
• Small roast chicken pieces or meatballs
• Serving side dishes and mezze

Care

• Keep the oven at or below 425°F (220°C) and never heat the dish empty.
• Use wooden or silicone utensils.
• Hand wash with a soft sponge and dry right away. Not dishwasher safe.
• Polish the copper exterior with lemon and salt or a copper cleaner. Keep polish off the tin lining.
• The dish can be re-tinned when the lining wears after years of use.
