don't reheat tomato based sauces in tupperware. The sauce becomes chemically bonded with the plastic when the water boils off.

8 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 1

That's because the red-colored oils in the sauce dissolve into the plastic.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

That's helpful. I would always rinse the sauce, and it never worked.

Actually no, you should also wash your spaghetti with cold water because it helps break the starch bonds making it less sticky.

Rinse the Tupperware with cold water when you are finish using it to hold the staining sauce. After that the container is ready for cabinet.
