I opened my new edition of Saveur magazine yesterday and on one of the
first pages was an add for Wolf ovens. they mention casseroles as
though everyone knows them and makes them. "Roasting poultry is very
different from baking a casserole or browning breadsticks. . A Wolf
dual convection oven has ten precision cooking modes." The casserole
crowd must be fairly sizeable and well-to-do if Wolf is addressing
their issues. )
