Traveling for good food has always been possible, but traveling with good food is a different story. Foil and plastic wrap have let me down too many times, leading to hours of wasted food due to potholes and dangerous driving. Bringing food to friends’ houses was a nightmare until I discovered the OXO glass bakeware line in 2020.
I purchased this brand’s pie dish and lid set to celebrate the publication of Erin Jeanne McDowell’s The Book of Pie and prepare for a few weeks of baking frenzy. I needed something sturdy enough to withstand all the treats I’d be making, portable so I could give extras to friends (when I’m feeling generous), and convenient for storing leftovers (when I’m feeling generous). The dishes and lids checked all the boxes. After finishing the cookbook, I quickly purchased more OXO products, including this $23 baking dish that quickly became my favorite.
OXO Good Grips 3 Quart Glass Baking Dish with Lid
Amazon
At 13 inches long and 9 inches wide, this container is the perfect size for all your summer cooking projects, whether that’s a fruit crisp you’ll make with produce from your local farmers market or lobster mac and cheese to take to a backyard barbecue. And when you’re done cooking, the BPA-free lid and leak-proof seal mean storage, stacking and transporting is a piece of cake.
A look at the 13,500+ five-star reviews on Amazon shows I’m not the only one raving about OXO’s product line. One satisfied customer called it the “perfect” baking dish, while another added that she loves the “slight curve” of the lid, which allows space to place food underneath. Yet another commented that she plans to use the pie plate “for years to come.”
They will last for years, even decades. These dishes are made from borosilicate glass, which means they can withstand extreme temperature changes without cracking – from freezer to oven, oven to fridge, fridge to microwave, microwave to dishwasher, etc. Glass is also stain-resistant and doesn’t absorb odors.
This $23 baking dish has inspired me to travel with food as much as I travel for food, and I can safely say I would have been willing to pay more for the peace of mind that this baking dish brings. Check out OXO’s lineup of glass baking dishes below:
