A glass oil and vinegar cruet is a gorgeous and practical staple for your home that adds a touch of class. Perfect for fans of Italian cuisine who enjoy dipping fresh bread in olive oil and balsamic, you’ll be happy to know that keeping your delicate cruets clean is a simple process.
Always hand wash your glass vinegar and oil cruet set; never place them in the dishwasher. Use warm water to rinse out the cruets before adding a few drops of mild dishwashing soap to the inside of each one. Some people will put a handful of uncooked rice inside with the soap and shake to scrub the interior of the glass since the neck of these casters is narrow.
You can also purchase a small bottle brush and slip it inside to gently wipe the interior clean. Then dump out the contents of the cruet and rinse with warm water until it runs clear.
The size of your glass oil and vinegar cruets will mainly depend on your (and your family’s) regular oil and vinegar consumption. If you like adding oil to your meals or frequently eat salads, you may need an 8-ounce cruet set. After all, you wouldn’t want to refill it all the time.
A smaller alternative, such as a 3-ounce set, doesn’t take up too much space when placed in a cabinet, on a countertop, or on the table. This size is great for those in need of a cute but useful table accessory too.
For the perfect balance of style and function, a set that can hold up to 6 ounces of oil and vinegar is the ultimate choice. They’re available in a myriad of designs, are easy to handle, and can hold plenty of contents enough to use for a couple of days.
