How to use

Place the ceramic baking dish on a middle rack in a preheated oven and avoid sudden temperature shocks such as placing a cold dish into a hot oven or transferring a hot dish to a cold surface. Use oven mitts when handling the dish after baking. Grease or use a light coating of oil or baking spray where required to assist release of sticky ingredients. Allow the dish to cool slightly before cleaning to avoid thermal shock.

Usage recommendations

For best results, preheat the oven to the recipe temperature before inserting the dish and avoid subjecting the ceramic to direct flame or stovetop heating. Hand washing with warm water and a non‑abrasive sponge preserves the glaze; avoid sudden temperature changes and use silicone or wooden utensils to prevent surface scratches.
