*If you're using a glass or pottery baking dish, it's good practice to place the cold dish in a cold oven that has not been preheated. Otherwise, the dish may crack due to the sudden temperature change.

Notes

*Because the baking dish has been refrigerated and is cold, it's good practice to place a cold glass/pottery dish in a cold oven that has not been preheated. Otherwise, the dish may crack due to the sudden temperature change.
