QuestionHow can I clean glass bakeware? I tried a bunch of things already.Elias WestonElias Weston is a Cleaning Specialist and the Founder of Seatown Cleaners in Seattle, Washington.

Cleaning SpecialistOne option you probably haven't tried yet is Bar Keeper's Friend. It's a powder composed of oxalic acid, and it will get almost anything off of bakeware. Just sprinkle the powder over the stain, scrub it with a soft towel or sponge, and rinse the bakeware thoroughly. You really have to get it 100% clean before using it again, since oxalic acid is not safe to consume. -

QuestionCan I put a red anchor tip on a glass baking dish that just came out of the oven to keep it hot for a pot luck?
Evie1234Community AnswerNo, you should never place a hot glass baking dish on a plastic container, even a plastic lid made for that specific dish. The drastic temperature difference between the hot glass and the cool plastic could cause the glass to shatter due to thermal shock. Additionally, the heat from the dish will melt or warp the plastic, which can release harmful chemicals into your food.
