Posted on Oct 10, 2023


When you think of glass lunchboxes, the first thing that comes to mind is probably a convenient way to pack and carry your midday meal. However, these versatile containers can do much more than just hold your lunch.

In this blog post, we'll explore some innovative and unexpected ways to use Borosil glass lunchboxes in your kitchen, unlocking your culinary creativity. 

Pickling Paradise

Glass lunchboxes are excellent for pickling your preferred vegetables. Fill the box with a blend of vinegar, spices, and your chosen veggies, allowing the flavours to mingle and develop over time. Homemade pickles not only taste great but also make wonderful additions to sandwiches and salads.

 

Salad Shaker

Transform your glass lunchbox into a portable salad shaker. Layer your favourite salad ingredients, starting with dressing at the bottom and greens at the top. When it's time to eat, simply shake the container to evenly coat your salad with dressing for a fresh and crisp meal on the go.

Dough Riser

Transform your lunchbox into a miniature dough proofer for bread and pizza. Place your dough inside, and the controlled environment created by the glass will help it rise evenly and develop the perfect texture. 

Zero-Waste Food Storage

Say goodbye to single-use plastic bags and containers. Glass lunchboxes are a sustainable and eco-friendly option for storing bulk foods like grains, pasta, and snacks. They keep your pantry organized and your ingredients fresh.

Marinating Marvel

Glass lunchboxes are ideal for marinating meats, tofu, or vegetables. The airtight seal ensures your marinade stays locked in, infusing your ingredients with flavour. It's perfect for grilling or roasting later on.

Breakfast in a Jar

Craft delicious breakfast parfaits or overnight oats in glass lunchboxes. Layer yoghurt, fruits, granola, and nuts for a convenient and nutritious morning meal. The transparent container allows you to admire your creation before digging in.

Artful Food Presentation

Take your dining experience to the next level by serving individual portions in glass lunchboxes. Whether it's a layered salad, a deconstructed dessert, or a creative appetiser, these containers add a touch of elegance to your table.

Freezer-Friendly Soups

Prepare large batches of your favourite soups and freeze them in portion-sized glass lunchboxes. When you're ready for a comforting meal, simply thaw and reheat your homemade soup for a delicious and convenient dinner.

Popsicle Molds

Create your own popsicles by freezing your favourite fruit juices, yoghurt, or smoothies in glass containers. Once frozen, simply run them under warm water to release the icy treats. Your tasty popsicles are ready!

Baking Bliss

Turn your glass lunchbox into a mini-baking dish. Bake single-serving desserts like brownies, bread pudding, or individual-sized casseroles. The clear glass allows you to monitor the cooking process and present your treats in an appealing way.

In your kitchen, glass lunchboxes are more than just lunch holders; they're versatile tools that can make your cooking journey exciting and fun.
