Nordic Ware Baking Sheet Sets

A True Workhorse In Our Test Kitchen

Available with lids and in half- and quarter-sheet sizes, our winning Nordic Ware Rimmed Baking Sheet Sets are great for baking and roasting, or for spreading out cooked rice or pasta to cool. Invert the baking sheet and you have a workable pizza peel or baking stone; set a wire rack inside it and promote air circulation for crisping and preventing sogginess as you roast. Adding a lid expands the sheet’s usefulness—you can cover food for convenient, stackable storage, and safe transport, or prevent little hands from grabbing warm cookies. Snapping on a well-fitting lid also reduces your reliance on plastic wrap and aluminum foil. These baking sheets were already great. The lids topped them off.

"Worth its weight in gold for the practical cook who wants to feel confident about putting good food on the table."

Performance

The plastic lid snapped on and off our winning rimmed baking sheet quickly, and we liked that it cut back on our use of plastic wrap and aluminum foil. In all our tests, it kept both frozen and refrigerated foods as fresh as disposable wraps did. The lid bowed slightly when we stacked heavy items on it but not enough to touch food on the sheet, and it didn't crack or warp. Our one criticism: The lid latches onto the sheet in two places, along the short edges. This was sufficient, but the lid would have felt much more secure if it attached on all four sides.

Broiling and Roasting

This extremely sturdy, warp-resistant baking sheet turned out evenly cooked and browned chicken, cauliflower, and focaccia. Its lightweight, compact size made it easy to maneuver into and out of the oven. Its size is ideal for preparing recipes that serve two and for kitchen tasks that require only a small amount of space, such as toasting a handful of nuts or a few tablespoons of sesame seeds.

Nordic Ware Storage Lid for Quarter Sheet

Ease of Use

Performance

Like its larger counterpart which fits our favorite rimmed baking sheet, this small rimmed baking sheet lid snapped on and off quickly and was easier to use than plastic wrap or aluminum foil. The lid kept sliced eggplant looking fresh in the refrigerator and sliced strawberries and bananas free of freezer damage. However, we wished the lid latched onto the baking sheet on all four sides, instead of two, as this felt less secure. The lid was also fairly durable. It bowed a bit when we stacked 10 pounds of food items on top of it, but not nearly enough to damage the lid. It snapped back into shape a couple hours later.
