Perhaps best of all, the three different sizes use the exact same lid, so you’re never without one.
They’re lightweight, great for bringing to the office or on a picnic, and cheap enough that I never mind doling out leftovers to friends and saying, “Keep the container” as they leave. But they also fit perfectly, one on top of the other, when they’re full.

(I have the 32-ounce ones full of stocks, pasta sauces, stews, and more in my freezer at all times.) They hardly take up any room at all when empty, as they stack super compactly. My personal food-storage containers of choice are restaurant-grade deli containers - incredibly durable, sturdy, and dishwasher- and freezer-safe. Material: Plastic containers, plastic lids | Shapes: Uniform | Sizes: Mix “If you have a dip or something like that, you can take it from the fridge to the table and then back into the fridge,” she says. You can cook in them, store in them, and serve in them. Or, if you’re interested in storage that doubles as kitchenware, Sheehan notes in particular how “100 percent brilliant” the Pyrex mixing bowls are. Or you can be like recipe developer Desirée Daniels and get one with identical containers. Pyrex makes a myriad of mixed sets that include different shapes and sizes, so it’s worth poking around to find the one that best suits your needs. “I find that some of the clip-on ones get warped over time, but these suction on nicely. Mei Li, co-founder of Food Waste Feast, notes that “it really helps not waste food when you can see what’s in your containers.” But her praise of Pyrex doesn’t stop there. “You don’t have to worry about putting a plate over the top,” Sheehan says. “I don’t want chana masala mixing with leftover egg yolks from baking.” She and cookbook author Erin Gleeson both note that all the pieces are dishwasher and microwave safe, even the lids, which is great for heating up food. “The glass containers don’t absorb the smell or color of the food stored inside of them,” says recipe developer and cookbook author Jessie Sheehan. The sturdiness and longevity of Pyrex are unrivaled: These containers do not break or chip even when dropped, the lids haven’t warped at all, and the glass has stayed sparkling clear no matter what foods I’ve put inside it over the years (now, I clean them in the dishwasher, but that was the case even when I washed them by hand). While I’m a deli-container evangelist (more on that below), I have a smattering of Pyrex glass containers that have been with me, traveling from apartment to apartment, for nearly a decade.
Material: Glass containers, silicone lids | Shapes: Mix | Sizes: Mix Here, I detailed my own favorites and consulted 15 experts (people who cook a lot and keep their kitchens together) to find out what they use to store dry goods, prepped foods, and leftovers. The point is, having the right mix has made my pantry and refrigerator so much easier to navigate and food less likely to spoil. Instead, I opt for a collection of food-storage containers that are efficient for my own way of cooking: many that nest tightly in my cramped cabinet, some that clean up especially well for messy leftovers, others that can go in the freezer, and a wide range of sizes overall so I can keep everything from salad dressing to a whole batch of brownies. That said, the Home Edit–style decanting of absolutely all food into clear boxes and jars is not my thing (and, practically speaking, is pretty unnecessary). I consider myself a pretty organized person (especially in the kitchen, which I use more than any other room in my apartment).
