Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Le Creuset stoneware, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Use: Wash the plate in warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly before first use.
- Thermal Shock: While the stoneware is heat-resistant, avoid moving it directly from a freezer to a preheated oven. Always allow items to come to room temperature if possible.
- Cleaning: The plates are dishwasher safe. However, for stubborn residue, allow the plate to cool completely before soaking in warm soapy water.
- Storage: Avoid nesting the plates too tightly without a protective layer between them to prevent surface scratching or edge chipping.
- Safety: Always use oven mitts when removing the plates from the oven or grill, as they will retain high heat.
