Pyrex Casserole Dishes Are Not Just for Baking

A covered Pyrex casserole is the ideal container for making sorbet. The shallow rectangle shape makes it easy to store sorbet in a crowded freezer. Furthermore, the easy-to-remove lids keep freezer odors out, while keeping liquid in. An added bonus is that colorful sorbet looks great in a glass container, leading to an impressive display while serving tableside. If Pyrex isn't available, a stainless steel mixing bowl covered with aluminum foil works well, too.
