I get this question periodically; I'm always tempted to reply, What would you use it for? But snark doesn't sell pottery, so I answer seriously about hot dish and lasagna in the large square baker, coffee cake and potica in the small, steamed rice and summer vegetables in the covered casserole.

Yesterday morning I found a perfect new example in my kitchen: Making cornbread from the More-With-Less Cookbook. I've sized up the proportions to fill a 9x13" pan.

On the left, a small batter bowl containing 1.5 cups AP flour, 1.5 cups cornmeal, 3 T. brown sugar, 2 T. baking powder and 3/4 tsp. salt, whisked together. On the right, a mixing crock with 3 beaten eggs, 1.5 cups milk and 3/8 cup vegetable oil. I'm about to add liquid into dry, mix 'til smooth, and pour into a greased 9x13" pan. Bake 25 minutes at 400° F., and the result is this:

Golden brown and delicious!
