Vaso medidor de vidro
Glass measuring cups are highly valued for their durability and versatility. Made from heat-resistant borosilicate glass, they can be used for measuring both hot and cold liquids without warping or leaching chemicals. The transparent glass allows for easy reading of measurements from any angle, and most glass measuring cups have clearly marked measurement lines, which help ensure accuracy in cooking and baking. They are also microwave safe, making them convenient for heating liquids directly in the cup.
Can Glass Measuring Cups Be Used In The Oven Or On The Stove?
High borosilicate glass measuring cups are designed to be oven-safe, but it’s important to check the manufacturer’s guidelines. They typically withstand oven temperatures, making them useful for baking and reheating. However, they are not suitable for direct stovetop use as they can crack or shatter from rapid temperature changes. For heating on the stove, use a different type of heat-resistant cookware designed for stovetop use.
How Should I Clean And Care For A Glass Measuring Cup?
Glass measuring cups are dishwasher safe, but it’s best to place them on the top rack to avoid potential damage. For hand washing, use warm, soapy water and a soft sponge to avoid scratching. If any stains or residues remain, a paste of baking soda and water can help. Avoid sudden temperature changes, as they can cause the glass to crack. Make sure the measuring cup is thoroughly dried before storing to prevent water spots.
