Our extra large 16-cup/3.8 L Round microwavable container includes a colander to steam veggies, rinse produce, or drain foods. It easily handles family-sized servings of your favorite foods.

DESCRIPTION

Nothing else hits the spot like the comfort of healthy, homemade food.

Our CrystalWave® Extra Large Round container with colander is perfect for preparing and storing family-size servings of favorites like pasta, casseroles, veggies, desserts, and even liquid-based meals like soups and broths. Unlike plastic wrap, its lid lets things stack on it to maximize refrigerator space.

CrystalWave® containers are made of a heat-resistant material, microwave safe up to 248°F/120°C. The lid's valve allows steam to escape during reheating, preventing any potential pressure build-up.​ Simply pop the steam vent and leave the seal in place to prevent splattering and spills when reheating. 

This container features a textured, scratch-resistant base to preserve its appearance.

When not in use, it nests with other CrystalWave® Round containers to maximize cupboard or drawer space.

• To achieve best reheating results, lower microwave power to 70%.
• If food is overcooked during reheating, it can reach temperatures in excess of 248°F/120°C, which can cause damage to the container. Take particular care with small quantities of food, or foods with high fat or sugar content such as gravy, sugar syrups, bacon, and meat on the bone. Check small amounts of high-risk foods every 30 seconds after the first minute of cooking.
• Always place container at least 2 in./5 cm away from the inside walls (including the door) of your microwave oven.

TIPS

• If needed, add 1 or 2 tablespoons of water to food at start of reheating
• When reheating for more than 2 minutes in the microwave (MAX 650W), stop and stir to ensure even reheating, then continue in 1-minute intervals if needed. Be sure to replace the cover after stirring food during reheating.
• After reheating, let closed container rest for a minute to allow the temperature to distribute evenly.
