Visions® Amber ceramic glass casserole, with glass lid. Highly resistant to sudden changes in temperature. 5 liter capacity. Vitroceramic glass (Pyroceram), a totally innocuous material, does not release toxic substances when heated, is non-porous, does not absorb odors or flavors from food and is not reactive to acidic foods. It also does not contain heavy metals such as chrome or nickel. The Visions ceramic glass casserole is extremely resistant to thermal shock, hence its versatility. It can be taken directly from the refrigerator to the oven, stovetop or microwave, and then into the dishwasher or sink, no matter how hot or cold the casserole is. It can be used on electric, gas or ceramic hobs, although not on induction cookers. The ceramic glass of the Visions casseroles retains a lot of heat, which allows cooking with less intensity than normal, and thus saving energy. Cooking on low heat prevents food from sticking or burning, and the nutrients in the food are better preserved. In addition, since it is transparent, you can monitor the cooking process at all times, without having to lift the lid. Visions pans are easy to clean, do not stain or retain odors. They are suitable for cleaning in the dishwasher. Characteristics Casserole with a 5-litre capacity, with an upper diameter of 27.5 cm and a base diameter of 21.5 cm.
