Baking dish Hendi 784112

This Hendi baking dish is made from porcelain and has side handles, with a durable glass coating and suitability for oven and microwave use. The combination supports cooking food in the dish and carrying it for service without transferring it to another vessel. Its compact rectangular format is intended for portion-scale work rather than a large batch.

Where it is used

Use the dish for a portion that can be baked in the oven and served in the same vessel. In a restaurant kitchen, this can reduce handling at the pass: the cooked food stays in its baking dish rather than being moved to separate serving ware. The side handles provide grip points for carrying it from the oven to the pass.

Microwave suitability gives the dish a separate role when a portion needs heating directly in its serving vessel. In a café, staff can move from heating to handover without transferring food into another container. The rectangular form and raised sides keep the food contained as the dish is carried and placed for service.

Care

The porcelain body tolerates high cooking temperatures, and the durable glass coating provides a smooth surface for regular kitchen use. The dish can also be cleaned in a dishwasher after service, fitting machine washing into the usual warewashing cycle.

Its ability to return to oven or microwave use after cleaning makes the same vessel available for another cooking or heating task. This is particularly useful when a kitchen uses portion dishes through successive service periods: the warewashing step prepares the dish for reuse without requiring a separate serving vessel.

How to choose

The rectangular footprint and raised sides help assess whether the dish is suitable for the intended portion and available oven space. Its compact format can also be considered when allocating storage alongside other portion-serving ware, rather than treating it as a large-batch baking vessel.

Choose this format when a portion needs a contained dish that can be carried from cooking to the pass. The side handles provide grip points during that movement; the shallow, rectangular profile also gives staff a clear way to judge how the dish will sit among other ware on a shelf or service area. Together, these features suit portion-scale preparation and handover.
