Cook it, serve it, keep it fresh – with these practical glass food storage containers
Made from high-quality ovenproof glass, the CLIP & CLOSE Glass containers are perfect for heating food in the oven. What’s more, these durable glass containers are also ideal for serving and freezing food. The hygienic lid with its tried-and-tested freshness seal helps to keep food fresh for longer.
Glass containers for food – the perfect all-rounders for the kitchen
Microwave, fridge, oven or freezer: glass containers keep fresh food cold or hot, making them incredibly versatile in the kitchen. These glass containers can withstand temperatures of up to 420°C, so they’re perfect for cooking a tasty bake or potato gratin in the oven. If there’s still some left when you’ve finished eating – no problem! Just leave the dish to cool, then put the lid on and keep it in the refrigerator. Then the next day, all you need to do is leave the bake in the container, pop it in the microwave and heat it up, then eat the leftovers from last night.
Storing food in glass containers with lids
Containers with lids are incredibly useful for storing food, whether it’s freshly made or hasn’t been cooked yet. Since glass has high thermal conductivity, food kept in a glass container in the fridge cools down considerably quicker and stays fresh for longer. And don’t worry – you can also pour yesterday’s tomato soup into the containers, as the glass won’t stain.
Meal prep trend
We’ve all been there – weekdays can be stressful, and it can be hard to find time to cook. So what do we do? Reach for those unhealthy ready meals at lunch time, of course! But when it comes to avoiding fast food, there is another great alternative to try: meal prep. This involves pre-cooking food, then packing it up into storage containers and taking it out of the fridge of the freezer when you need it. Hygiene is a particularly important consideration when you’re storing food for long periods of time. This is where the glass containers with lids come in extra handy. First, glass is very hygienic and easy to clean. Second, the tomato soup won’t spill out if it’s tilted in the fridge, as the lid with proven freshness seal is 100 per cent leak-proof. And no worries: glass is odourless and tasteless, so even if you store food for a long time, the flavour of the food won’t change and the container won’t take on the odour of the food.
