Stoneware is a type of ceramic material that is fired at a high temperature, making it very durable and non-porous. It is different from other types of bakeware because it retains heat well, cooks food evenly, and is safe to use in the oven, microwave, and dishwasher.
To season your stoneware, simply wash it with hot, soapy water and dry it thoroughly. Then, rub a small amount of vegetable oil over the entire surface of the stoneware. Place it in a preheated oven at 350°F for 15 minutes. Let it cool before using it for the first time.
No, it is not recommended to use metal utensils on stoneware as it can scratch the surface. Instead, use nylon, wooden, or silicone utensils to avoid damaging the stoneware.
Clean your stoneware with hot water and a mild detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the stoneware. If food is stuck on the surface, soak the stoneware in hot water for a few minutes before cleaning it.
No, stoneware is not meant to be used on the stovetop or under the broiler. It is designed for use in the oven or microwave only. Using it on the stovetop or under the broiler can cause the stoneware to crack or break.
