Always serve it on a wooden underplate or a trivet, and warn guests that it is hot; a sizzling platter reaches temperatures that will burn on contact. Let it cool completely before washing. Season food on the platter rather than adding cold sauce to a very hot surface, which spits. Store it flat rather than stacked under heavy items, since stoneware chips at the edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it compares\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgainst a plate, stoneware holds heat so food stays hot to the last bite. Against a cast iron platter, stoneware is lighter and does not need seasoning, though cast iron takes higher heat. For serving cold dishes, any platter will do — this is specifically for hot food.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I heat it safely?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGradually.
