How to Cook With Glassware
- 1). Use a low heat setting when cooking with glassware on the stove top. According to Visions Cookware, glassware retains more heat then a traditional metal pot, especially when the lid is on. If this is your first time cooking with glassware, bear in mind that the foods that you normally cook will be done much more quickly than you are used to.
- 2). Place glassware in the microwave when you want to heat up your meal quickly. Leftovers also can be microwaved in glassware, and you can use the microwave to heat side dishes for a main meal.
- 3). Pop the glassware in the toaster over for a more convenient way to cook. If you don't want to heat up your house by turning on your oven, glass cookware can be placed in the toaster oven for the appropriate amount of cooking time.
- 4). Bake your favorite casserole or roast a juicy chicken in a glassware tray. The meal can be seasoned and prepared in the tray, baked at the desired temperature and served in the same tray. The meal then can be stored in the freezer for later.
- 5). Store your food in the freezer and, when you are ready to cook, bring the dish to room temperature and then pop it in the oven. The glassware and its lid can be placed directly in the oven at the desired temperature, and then baked for the appropriate time period.
