CorningWare French White 15-Ounce Oval Dish



15-Ounce Oval Dish
Have to be careful when microwaving. Lid pops off and creates spills, if left sealed. If not liquids still seap out over the edge and spill.

It's not what you think of when you say "Corningware," it's only stoneware.
The original "French White" Corningware was made of Corning's famous pyroceramic glass, which could be used on the gas stove, put directly in the freezer, put under the broiler right from the freezer, and oh yes, also used in a microwave. And it was very unlikely to shatter if dropped. If you pounded on it with a hammer and nail you might have gotten it to break. Most people are thinking of this stuff when they say the word "Corningware."

Back in the 90s when World Kitchens bought the license from Corning, they decided to halt production of a line of cookware that would take anything and last forever, and dupe customers, especially brides, into thinking the stoneware "French White" was the same thing as the wonderful French White pyroceramic cookware previously available to their mothers and sisters.

The pattern is very attractive and can be used with any decor, and they do offer many sizes, but this stuff is not, repeat, really not, what people mean when they...

Corningware
I love it. It's perfect for taking food to work and it cleans up so easily. [qrq0t[ ertw er9tuq w[er9u t[wq0ertu[wpywretouwreu[erotpreyee
