While cooking Mahi Mahi in the oven (set on broil) tonight, my wife and I heard a clank. I quickly opened the door to the oven to find shards of Pyrex covering the inside. All 3 pieces of Mahi Mahi had come to rest on 1 slab of Pyrex glass while the remainder of the dish shattered amongst the oven. Having never experienced this before I decided to search for an answer. It appears that we're not alone.
Has anyone else experienced this phenomenon?

I have had that happen. for us it was adding cold water to an already hot pan. Not a good mix. Or putting really cold/frozen food in the oven in a glass pan, the temp difference with the oven and the cold food could cause it.
ReplyDeleteThanks qtpies7. The fish was fully thawed and the glassware was room temp. I think the wife is on a mission to call Pyrex tomorrow.
