Customer Reviews of Pyrex Storage 2-Cup Round Dish, Clear with Blue Lid
Customer Rating:  Summary: These are VERY useful. Comment: I've had mine a long time and they're holding up great. We use them for everything. Serving dishes -- just pop the lids on and store leftoevers. Lunches to go -- haven't broke one yet. Mass production -- make a bazillion salads and serve them as needed. My intent was to find a superior alternative to plastic. These are it. I really like being able to see the contents in the frig. Customer Rating: Summary: heavy duty glass container Comment: After learning how bad plastic containers can be to your health, i got rid of all my plastics and bought these heavy duty glass containers. I freeze all my soups and meaty pasta sauces in these. Some thin glass containers could break/crack easily if you try to freeze and warm it up in microwave but these are tough and sturdy! love it, though kinda pricy Customer Rating:  Summary: Cannot be used in toaster oven Comment: Be warned that this and similar dishes cannot be used in toaster ovens. I bought some specifically for that purpose, assuming that a small bowl that was safe for use in conventional ovens and microwaves would be ideal for toaster ovens. Only after I received them was I able to read the instructions and discover that this is unsafe (apparently because the heat source is too close -- they also cannot be used under broilers, on the stovetop, etc.). Customer Rating: Summary: Great made in USA QUALITY Comment: Dumped all the plastic containers and went with glass. Easy to clean, store and use. Nice to be able to buy a product made by USA workers. Customer Rating: Summary: Indespensible Comment: I've purchased over 20 of these in the past 4-5 years. They are indispensable because of their flexibility in being able to be used in the fridge, microwave and even to make pot pies in the oven. The 2-cup size is perfect for portion control. The lid doesn't warp or stain when used in the microwave so you can stop wasting wax paper. They are hard to destroy and I've dropped them many times into the sink from 1-2 feet or 4 feet all the way to the kitchen floor that has ceramic tile and they've survived. Plus they are cheap enough to replace or buy extras when your friends or family poach them from you. More Reviews PYREX glassware is incredibly durable and easy to clean. Unlike earthenware, porcelain or enameled dishes, PYREX glass absorbs, rather than reflects oven heat waves. This speeds the cooking process and helps save energy. It's a durable and practical form of cookware that's easy to clean and attractive to serve with. PYREX glassware products can go directly from refrigerator or freezer to a microwave, convection, or preheated conventional oven. A small amount of liquid should be added to the ovenware vessel prior to baking foods that release liquids while cooking. 
Choosing Appliance -> Convection Ovens Convection ovens allow you to bake more foods (cookies, muffins, etc.) at once with even browning, but without the need to shift and rotate pans. A convection oven is the same as a conventional oven except a fan is installed in the back interior of the oven. The fan is used to blow and force the heat to circulate in the oven and around the food, thus eliminating the need to rotate and shift pans. In reality, though, even with the most expensive convection ovens, you will still need to rotate your foods, because there will always exist still hot spots in the cavity, because the cavity is small. Don't compare home convection ovens with most commercial convection ovens used by bakers and small food manufacturers, because their commercial ovens are much larger than home ovens and commercial ovens don't have any hot spots and therefore, there's no need to shift and rotate pans. Choosing Appliance -> Cooking Pans This is another area where spending money is justified. The best pans combine different metals like aluminum or copper on the outside and stainless steel on the inside. Aluminum and copper are valued for their ability to spread heat evenly over the entire pan, and stainless steel is valued for its non-reactive qualities. Buy pans which are heavy and thick with solid handles that are well fastened to the pot. As with knives, buy the highest quality cooking pans you can afford one at a time, starting with a saute pan and a 3 qt. sauce pan. They will last forever. At some point, a stock pot (which will be especially pricey) should be considered for serious cooking. Pyrex Storage 2-Cup Round Dish, Clear with Blue Lid
