- Can it go under the broiler?
- No. Anchor Hocking rates this dish to 425°F in a conventional oven and does not list it as broiler safe. Broiling can crack tempered glass.
- Can it go from the freezer straight to the oven?
- No. Let frozen food thaw or warm the dish gradually first. Sudden temperature change is the most common cause of shattering in glass bakeware.
- Does it come with a lid?
- No. It is a single open dish, so you will need foil or a separate cover for storing leftovers.
- How big is it, and what fits inside?
- It is about 9.5 inches across and 4.2 inches deep, holding roughly half a gallon. That is enough for a family casserole or a 9-inch pie.
- Is it dishwasher and microwave safe?
- Yes. It is safe in the dishwasher, microwave and freezer as well as the oven.
- How does it compare with ceramic bakeware?
- Glass is lighter on the wallet, lets you see browning and does not chip glaze, but ceramic handles broiler heat and sudden temperature changes better.
