Disadvantages: fluted edges a bit difficult to clean

Pyrex Rectangular Flan Dish, I am getting bored with circular pies cakes and flans there is a rectangular flan dish made by Pyrex. I think this dish only comes in one size approximately 23cm x 30cm. 9. Inches by 11.8 inches.

This dish is a good size to get several portions of food from. I use this dish for sponge puddings, tomato and onion flans. It is suitable for cooking any flan or pie/tart in, also useful for roasting potatoes and parsnips. This rectangular flan dish has many uses.
To serve a flan from this dish best cut flan in rectangles and serve.

This Pyrex glass flan dish is quite attractive enough to use as a serving dish it has fluted raised sides the corners not right angles but rounded.

Although Pyrex glass is easy to clean I do find the fluted sided ones harder as if you over cook burn the food it's harder to get it off, a good soaking usually helps. This Pyrex glass does not stain.

The glass that Pyrex is made is good quality. It is heart resistant up to 300C and can be used in a standard cooker or microwave. This rectangular one a bit big and difficult for my microwave though.
Food can be stored in this in the fridge or freezer it is also dishwasher safe.
There is a ten year guarantee on Pyrex.
I find my Pyrex very durable quite strong not easily chipped or broken.

Yes I would recommend this dish to anyone who wants to make any flans or pies.

This Pyrex dish is available at http://www.choiceful.com/choiceful- id-2163-Pyrex-Creatif-RectangularShaped- Flan-Dish-23cm-x-30cm.html for £6.13 its RRP is £8.03. I think this would make a good wedding /house welcome present for young couples.
