What is the Best Way to Warm and Bake Foods In My Porcelain?

Pfaltzgraff porcelain is microwave, conventional oven, freezer and dishwasher safe. Pfaltzgraff will suggest the following when baking in your porcelain:

  1. Do not subject your porcelain to sudden or extreme temperature changes. Start your oven no higher than 225°F for the first 10 minutes, then increase to a temperature no higher than 350 degrees.  
  2. Do not place hot dishes on a wet surface or handle with a wet cloth. The hot dish may break when touching the colder water.
  3. Do not place porcelain on direct heat, in the broiler, or under a microwave browning element.
  4. Always use a padded mitt when removing from oven or microwave.
  5. When warming in microwave, use the porcelain piece that best fits the portion size. This way, all items will heat evenly and not cause "hot spots" in your piece that could lead to crazing and cracking.
  6. Porcelain with a metallic rim should not be used in a microwave.
