Best Answer

Granite is a form of 'igneous' rock... The name 'igneous' is taken from the Latin 'ignis', for 'fire', because igneous rock is formed from magma and volcanic activity.

In short, while granite could be too hot for your cooking pots to handle, your cooking pots won't ever get too hot for granite to handle... They'd melt first! :-)
