Description:

Pillivuyt deep classic souffles are exceptionally well-constructed with thin, even walls that allow for quick and even heat distribution. Because of their excellent cooking properties, these are multi-purpose dishes for everything from desserts to savory baked vegetable dishes and crusty pot pies. Creating a successful souffle requires efficient heat conduction and straight, smooth walls which allow the souffle to rise easily upward for maximum volume and lightness. Pillivuyt's fine impermeable glaze ensures a smooth ride to the top and also makes the dishes extremely easy to clean and maintain their original beauty. The classic pleats and the brilliance of Pillivuyt's glaze make these dishes attractive enough for the elegant table and the variety of sizes accommodates all types of presentations at the table, from tidbits to salads to casseroles. At 7 1/4 inches in diameter and with an 8-cup capacity, this dish is very versatile for serving at holiday and guest tables, as well as for baking generous casseroles and souffles.

Features:
  • 8-cup, 7-1/4-inch-diameter pleated dish for soufflés, casseroles, cold salads

  • Straight, deep sides encourage maximum volume and lightness in soufflés

  • Porcelain construction with thin, even walls for efficient heat conduction

  • Safe for oven, freezer, microwave, dishwasher, broiler, and stovetop with diffuser

5Great souffle dish of unclear dimensions  Jun 12, 2011
By toughcrowd
This review is derived from my review of the "Pillivuyt Porcelain 6-cup Deep Classic Pleated Souffle Dish." I purchased both the "6-cup" and the "8-cup" versions, because I make both dinner and dessert souffles, and dinner souffles generally call for a larger dish than dessert souffles. Having only made about 20 souffles in my life, I'm not sure I have the credentials to review a souffle dish. Nevertheless, I feel compelled to review these so as to offset the average 1-star rating given to the 6-cup dish by a reviewer who felt he/she was misled about the dimensions of the dish. This is a great souffle dish. Its elegant simplicity complements the appearance of the souffle itself. The thin porcelain gives an excellent evenly cooked result, and the straight sides allow the souffle to rise perfectly. The only problem with this product - and the previous reviewer of the 6-cup dish is sort of right here - is that it is difficult to determine the true volume of the dishes in the entire product line, and they probably ARE smaller than advertised. But I don't think there was ever any intention of claiming that this dish is 7-1/4" deep. The marketer is saying that it is a "deep classic" design (to be contrasted with the "shallow classic" design, which Amazon also sells). The 7-1/4" figure applies to the outer diameter, not to the depth. So for your reference, here are the measurements I get for these two products: "6-cup deep classic": outer diameter (OD) 6-1/4" x 3.5" tall. Inner diameter (ID) 14.25 cm x 7.5 cm tall. Calculated volume 1.2L. Useful volume (the point to which I would fill a souffle dish) ~1L. "8-cup deep classic": OD 7-1/4" x 3-7/8", ID 17 cm x 8.5 cm. Calculated volume 1.9L. Useful volume 1.5L. (I'm mixing Imperial and metric here because I have a deep suspicion that the inner dimensions were designed for the metric kitchen, but I want you to be able to compare my measurements to the advertised outer dimensions, which are given on the Amazon site in Imperial units). Note that you have to take my "useful" volumes with a grain of salt, because they depend on my own ideas of how high one should fill a souffle dish and, as I said, my credentials are suspect. Also, please note that I measure inner depth only to the point where the dish starts to flare out. The actual dish rises a bit higher, but it would be absolutely wrong to fill it beyond the flare point. Anyway, I would rate this a 5-star product for itself, but I agree with the 1-star reviewer of the 6-cup dish that the manufacturer could provide more useful (and accurate?) dimensional information.
