Rectangular Baking Dish Maestro MR-1106-36 — 36 cm, nonstick roasting and baking pan is a 36 cm oven-safe rectangular pan designed for roasting, casseroles, lasagnas and sheet cakes. The pan features a durable nonstick interior that facilitates easy food release and simplifies cleaning. Constructed to provide even heat distribution across the baking surface, this Maestro baking dish is suitable for everyday home cooking and small-scale professional use where consistent browning and reliable performance are needed.
Advantages
The nonstick coating minimizes food sticking and reduces the need for excess oil or butter, while the rectangular shape and 36 cm length accommodate standard family-sized portions. Its oven-safe construction allows for roasting and baking at typical household oven temperatures, and the smooth interior surface makes washing faster by hand or in a dishwasher if the coating manufacturer permits. The pan’s flat base and straight sides help produce uniform baking results and make portioning and serving straightforward.
Suitable for
- Roasting meats and vegetables for family meals
- Baking lasagna, casseroles and gratins
- Preparing sheet cakes, brownies and bar cookies
- Reheating and finishing oven dishes with even browning
When it may not be suitable
This baking dish may not be ideal for cooking methods that require stovetop use or direct flame, as it is intended for oven use only. It may also be less appropriate for very high-temperature professional baking if the nonstick coating’s maximum temperature rating is exceeded; always follow the coating manufacturer’s maximum temperature guidance.

How to use
Place ingredients evenly in the rectangular pan and preheat the oven to the temperature indicated in your recipe. For best results, allow the pan to warm in the oven briefly before placing food inside to promote even cooking. Use oven mitts when handling the pan and set it on a heat-resistant surface after removing it from the oven. Clean the pan after it cools according to the nonstick coating care instructions; typically this involves washing with warm soapy water and a soft sponge, avoiding metal scouring pads or abrasive cleaners that can damage the coating.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify the pan’s maximum oven-safe temperature according to the nonstick coating guidance.
- Ensure the 36 cm size fits your oven and desired portion sizes.
- Consider whether the nonstick surface meets your preferences for release and cleaning.
Usage recommendations
To prolong the life of the nonstick surface, avoid using metal utensils and sharp tools when serving or cutting directly in the pan; instead use silicone, wooden or plastic utensils. Follow manufacturer care instructions and avoid sudden temperature shocks (such as rinsing a hot pan with cold water) to maintain coating performance.
