Full details
The Pyrex Cook & Freeze 0.85L Square Dish is ideal for home cooks who meal prep or frequently store leftovers. Its key benefit is the ability to safely transition from freezer to oven, simplifying cooking and storage. A minor caveat is its specific 0.85L capacity, which may be small for large family meals. This durable borosilicate glass dish offers a 0.85L capacity, resists extreme temperatures (-20°C to 200°C), and is safe for oven, microwave, and freezer use. It’s also BPA-free, scratch-resistant, and stackable for convenient storage.

FAQs
Is the lid oven-safe?
No, the plastic lid is not oven-safe and must be removed before placing the dish in the oven.
Can I go directly from the freezer to a hot oven?
While the borosilicate glass is designed for temperature resistance, it is recommended to allow for a gradual temperature change to avoid thermal shock. For example, let the dish sit at room temperature for a few minutes before placing it in a preheated oven.
How do I clean the dish if food is baked on?
Soak the dish in warm, soapy water for a period. For tougher residue, you can use a paste of baking soda and water and gently scrub with a non-abrasive sponge. It is also dishwasher safe.
What is the warranty period for this product?
The Pyrex Cook & Freeze range comes with a 10-year warranty from Pyrex.
Can I stack these dishes in the freezer?
Yes, the square design allows for efficient stacking, making them ideal for saving space in your refrigerator or freezer.
Is the glass safe for microwaving?
Yes, the borosilicate glass dish is microwave safe. Please ensure the lid is removed or vented during microwave use.
What are the dimensions of the 0.85L dish?
The dish measures 15cm x 15cm.
Troubleshooting
Dish is stained or has persistent odors.
Soak the dish in warm water with a mild detergent or baking soda. For tough stains, a non-abrasive cleaner can be used. Rinse thoroughly.
Dish cracked or chipped after use.
Inspect for any damage. Discontinue use if cracked or chipped. Ensure temperature changes are gradual to prevent thermal shock.
Lid doesn't fit snugly.
Ensure the rim of the dish is clean and dry. Check if the lid is correctly aligned. Extreme temperature changes can sometimes affect plastic lid fit; allow both to return to room temperature.
Food sticks to the bottom of the dish.
Ensure adequate oil or cooking spray is used before baking. For reheating, add a small amount of liquid if necessary. Soaking after use can help.
