Cooking and Serving in Stoneware


Stoneware is excellent for all oven baking because it conducts heat evenly and uniformly.  Your new stoneware pot will last a long time if you remember a few pointers:

  • Stoneware does not like sudden and extreme temperature changes.
  • If the pot is to be put into a hot oven preheat with hot water.
  • Or, put pot into cold oven and allow it to heat up with oven.
  • Never use stoneware on direct heat or under a broiler.

Stoneware is also excellent for serving hot or cold beverages, hot casseroles or soups. Remember to:

  • Preheat any pot to which you are adding boiling liquid.
  • Have pot at toom temperature if using in microwave oven.

Stoneware is dishwasher safe and all glazes are food safe.
