    Got any hot tips on high quality affordable glass containers without plastic components? Standard gaskets, or ones which can be cut from silicone and replaced as needed are ok.

    Ideally should survive small drops and boiling water.

    There are expensive junk ones at my IGA but something like old Pyrex would be good.

      Ikea 365 has a bunch of shapes with differing lids incl. silicon and bamboo. Lids can be bought separately for replacement

        I’ll have a look. Most IKEA is complete junk but sometimes their products are ok. I hate MDF so much I basically never look at them, awful carcinogenic material with all of the disadvantages of wood and none of the benefits.

      I have been using beeswax wraps on borosilicate glass containers

      Part of me wonders if silicones act like microplastics too
