Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware plates are commonly oven-safe, but it is crucial to check for specific indications of oven safety on the label or symbol. Different materials have varying temperature guidelines, so it is important to handle each type accordingly. While plates in the oven can serve purposes such as warming plates for serving or heating leftovers directly, it is essential to follow safety measures, including preheating the oven with the plate inside and allowing the plate to cool down slowly to avoid thermal shock. If you prefer alternatives, consider using oven-safe dishes or cast-iron\/metal plates. Avoid using plates made of materials that are not oven-safe. Lastly, it is not necessary to always use oven-safe plates, but it is recommended for optimal safety.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Plates are kitchen essentials that we use every day, but have you ever wondered if they can go in the oven?
