In case you
are confused, like I first was, a casserole can mean two things. Yes,
that sumptuous looking dish your friend shared a picture of is also a
casserole. This is a one meal dish that is made and served in the
same dish, eliminating the need to wash multiple dishes and keeping
your dining table spacious, without too many dishes on the table.
However, the casserole that I mainly intend to tell you about is the
dish in which you serve food to keep it hot for a longer time.
If you are an
Indian, you will definitely agree with me on the fact that there is
no better meal than a plate of hot chapatis served with your
favourite veggies. The sad part about chapatis is that they are no
longer tasty when they get cold. Another sad part here is that
chapatis get cold within minutes of getting out of the pan. This
makes casseroles very convenient to have. Get your chapatis straight
out of the oven and put them into the casserole so that they stay hot
long enough to let your husband enjoy his meal of hot chapatis
smeared with ghee and his favourite helping of paneer tikka on the
side. And it is not just chapatis. Fried fish, fritters and dosas are
some of the other dishes that you can store in a casserole,
preventing them from getting cold and spoiling your meal.
Choosing A
Casserole:
The
following are the things you have to look at when choosing a casserole sets .
1.
The Material- Casseroles come in
different materials. Porcelain casserole sets are extremely light and
thus very easy to handle. Stoneware, on the other hand, can keep the
food hot inside for long. If you want something that is going to look
elegant on your dining table, you can go for glass dishes that let
you see through them.
2.
The Function- Not all casserole
dishes can be placed in a microwave, oven, freezer or dishwasher. You
need to check for these features when you buy a casserole set.
3.
The Look- Casseroles sets come in
different shapes and sizes. Choose one
that will fit comfortably in the oven and
will look good on your dining table. If you are choosing a large
dish, you need to ensure that it is not too heavy as the very fact
that it is large indicates that it will be heavy with the amount of
food it is going to hold. The handles are another thing you have to
look at. Ensure that the casserole sets have
an easy-to-carry ergonomic design.
