Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Pyrex dish lasts for years, follow these best practices:
- Pre-heating: Always pre-heat your oven before inserting the dish, as cold dishes placed into extremely hot environments can experience thermal stress.
- Avoid Thermal Shock: Do not take the dish directly from the freezer and place it into a hot oven, or vice-versa. Allow the dish to reach room temperature before adding hot liquids or subjecting it to drastic temperature changes.
- Cleaning: The dish is dishwasher safe. For stubborn, burnt-on food, soak the dish in warm soapy water before scrubbing. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads that may dull the glass surface.
- Handling: Always use oven mitts when removing the dish from the oven, as the glass retains heat for a long period.
