I think that is what I refer to, rather unimaginatively, as a
"Corningware dish" or a "casserole", the larger tending to casserole, the
smaller to dish. Perhaps you will recall that Corningware produced a
universal removable handle for its dishes (I think we still have one
around somewhere) however, it was kind of inconvenient, always felt a
little unsafe and finally was rendered obsolete by the invention of pot holders.
