More Broken Dishes

 


There’s an awful lot of glass in my kitchen. Most of my tableware is glass, as are my casserole dishes, baking pans, measuring pitchers, and mixing bowls. I even own a few glass saucepans. I love how everything can go in the dishwasher, the oven and the microwave. I love how easy it all is to clean, even if I’ve been baking aubergine parmigiana or steaming beets fresh from my garden. But glassware isn’t foolproof. The best way to keep yourself, your counters and your cookware safe is to fully preheat the oven before use. Always place hot glassware on a DRY towel or pot holder – never a stove top, metal trivet, bare counter, damp cloth or sink. Make sure there’s enough liquid to cover the entire bottom of the pan, and check periodically to make sure the liquid hasn’t boiled away. Last (but not least), keep your wits about you when emptying the dishwasher.
