ceramic dish

Kiln-made serving vessel

A ceramic dish is a shallow container made from fired clay, used for cooking, serving, or storing food.

The term emphasizes the material—distinguishing it from glass, metal, or plastic alternatives.

Ceramic dishes range from everyday stoneware to fine porcelain: Put the casserole in a ceramic dish and bake for an hour.
