Warm them before serving hot food if you want it to stay hot. Stack with a cloth between plates, since grinding wears a printed surface and a rim first. Wash over a cloth rather than directly against a steel sink. Avoid thermal shock, and check before microwaving, since decorated ceramics vary in what they tolerate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it compares\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgainst a flat plate, a deep shape keeps pasta, salad and saucy dishes on the plate. Against a bowl, it is wider and easier to eat from with a knife and fork.
