can you pressure cook tupperware?
    #7889784 - 01/16/08 07:13 PM (16 years, 16 days ago)

I bought some cheap 3-4 inch Tupperware containers that are microwavable freezer and dishwasher safe. They are nice because there deep enough but nice and wide and will keep growing surface low in the FC for better humidity;

The plastic type is #5, PP

I would do 5 inoc points and just inject to the bottom of the tub

I did some research and answered my question

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resin_identification_code

Polypropylene has a melting point of 160 �C (320 �F). Many plastic items for medical or laboratory use can be made from polypropylene because it can withstand the heat in an autoclave. Food containers made from it will not melt in the dishwasher, and do not melt during industrial hot filling processes. For this reason, most plastic tubs for dairy products are polypropylene sealed with aluminium foil (both heat-resistant materials)

the lid has a 3 on it but no recycle marking so because wiki says that 3 is not used for food prep, it must also be 5

this would be really nice to use over jars, you can stack probably 5-6 of them in a 4 qt pc

Ill give it a test run and let you guys know what happends, I assume PC doesnt reach 300*
