deep dishes

Vessels with depth

Deep dishes are baking pans with high, sloped sides, designed to hold thick fillings.

The term is most associated with Chicago-style pizza, where a deep dish produces a pie-like pizza with a tall crust, substantial cheese layer, and chunky tomato sauce on top: We ordered a deep dish with sausage and peppers.
