Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your pie dish remains in peak condition, avoid extreme temperature shocks, such as moving it directly from a freezing environment into a preheated oven. When cleaning, although it is dishwasher safe, hand washing with a soft sponge can help preserve the luster of the glaze over many years. When using in the oven, place the dish on a stable oven rack to allow for even airflow around the base. Ensure the dish is placed on a heat-resistant mat or trivet after removing it from the oven to protect your dining table surface.
