Bormioli RoccoFido Square Jar with Blue Lid, 17-1/2-Ounce

This is been such a sweet little jar and has made getting my coffee grounds every morning a much more pleasurable experience.The blue lid really adds a special something.

Pedí 2 frascos, venían bien empacados pero el desenvolverlos, uno de ellos estaba un poco despostillado de la parte azul y com los pedazos de vidrio en el plástico, no es gran cosa por eso no pongo mala calificación

Over the course of a year I have ordered multiple Bormioli Rocco Fido square jars in several sizes, including: this 25 1/4 oz size; I also have purchased the 33 3/4 oz, 17 1/2 oz, and 6 3/4 oz sizes. I was so happy to get rid of all my old plastic storage containers (some of which I am sure contained the dreaded BPA) and replace them with these wonderful jars. I use them to store my medicinal Essiac tea (which I make by the quart), coffee beans, nuts, homemade salad dressings, homemade condensed cream of mushroom soup (all organic, and so much better tasting in recipes than store bought canned), homemade stir-fry sauce (so all we have to do is measure out what we need, when we need it - so quick and easy!), homemade salsas and 'cowboy caviar,' as well as left over sauces, soups, and stews. I bought four of the 17 1/2 oz size to pack hubby's lunch for work (soup, stew. pasta dishes, etc.) These jars are perfect to use for storing sourdough bread starters in the refrigerator. I love that these containers are clear; I can see which container is holding what I'm looking for at a glance. They are attractive, versatile, and easy to care for; made from heavy, quality glass that will last forever when taken care of properly. Although the base is square, the (wide) mouth is round, so any right-sized gasket will work. Official Fido Bormioli Le Parfait Jar Rubber Gaskets Seals Original From Italy Sealed Pack of 6 are available right here at Amazon, however, if you prefer those. I consider these jars a great investment, and will be getting more.PROS* jars made in Italy using strong, shatter resistant quality glass* versatile - can be used to store wet or dry foods, in cupboards or refrigerator; attractive enough for the countertop* dishwasher safe WITHOUT gasket and metal* lead free, BPA free* replacement rubber gaskets readily available* available in a variety of sizes ( from 6 3/4 oz to 67 3/4 oz - square bottomed and round bottomed, with four different color lid options (clear glass sprayed with organic European varnishes)* more sanitary than plastic storage options; can be sterilized* lasts longer than plastic and other glass products that lack Bormioli quality* because they are clear - it is quick and easy to identify what is stored inside* sealed with air tight gaskets ... foods stay fresher longerCONS* I don't have enough counter or cupboard space for all the Bormioli jars I would like to collectNOTES:* only the glass is advertised as dishwasher safe. Not realizing this, the first time I washed the jar in the dishwasher I kept the metal on. When I took the jar out after the drying cycle I noticed a weird white powdery residue on the metal, but was able to clean it off. To remedy this, if I do put jars with metal in the dishwasher, I stop the dishwasher just before the drying cycle begins, rinse off the jar metal (to remove all traces of dishwasher detergent residue), put the jar w/metal back in the dishwasher, and let it run through the drying cycle. No powdery residue or discoloration on the metal.* although I'm sure that the jars are airtight when the gasket is new/not worn, I have had some leakage from a jar when tipped to the side after using the gasket only a few times.

I use these to make parfaits, salads, etc. While great for eating and food storage they may be better suited to dry storage as they are not meant for the dishwasher. The rubber stopper comes out so the jars are easy to get clean with soap and hot water. These jars are extremely pretty and would be a great way to give homemade treats or other gifts and could easily be used for other forms of storage whether away or in view. They are excellent quality.

Compre frascos de dif. Capacidades estoy en un curso de panadería y me han sido de gran utilidad para la elaboración de la levadura artesanal. Excelente calidad.
