ovenproof
Survives high temperatures
Ovenproof describes cookware or dishes that can withstand oven temperatures without cracking, melting, or releasing harmful chemicals: Make sure the handle is ovenproof before putting the whole pan in.
The term usually implies safety up to standard cooking temperatures, though manufacturers often specify limits.
