Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Le Creuset stoneware in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: While the plates are dishwasher-safe, hand washing with warm soapy water and a soft cloth is recommended to maintain the gloss of the enamel.
- Oven Use: Always allow for gradual temperature changes. Do not take a plate directly from the freezer to a hot oven; allow it to reach room temperature first to avoid thermal shock.
- Storage: To prevent scratching or chipping when stacking, place a small felt protector or paper towel between each plate.
- Compatibility: These plates are fully compatible with microwaves, refrigerators, freezers, and standard ovens or grills up to 260°C.
