Compatibility: The container is compatible with refrigerators, freezers, and microwaves (for reheating purposes only, not cooking). It is also dishwasher safe for easy cleaning.

Care:

  1. Washing: Hand wash with mild soap and water, or place in the dishwasher. For best results and longevity of the seal, top-rack dishwasher placement is recommended.

  3. Microwave Use: Ensure the lid is *loosely* placed or vented when reheating food to prevent pressure buildup. Do not use in ovens or on direct heat sources.
