hi
yesterday i found this beautiful red roaster in an antique store. it was 14 dollars. it's enamel, very heavy and has a skirt thingy around the bottom of it. the inside, when you lift the lid, is not like a regular roaster with sides. this one is rounded on the bottom. on the side is embossed the word "savory".
i must not be a very good googlier because all i could come up with were savory dishes to make.
does anyone know about these? it's definitely enamel, but the red, do you think it would leach dye or something if i used it? it is in great shape. no dings, like enamal stuff usually has.
so, my questions are: does anyone know what decade these are from?
are they safe to use?
why the rounded bottom?
is there a skirt around the bottom for fireplace cooking?
thanks for any information anyone has.
