Dishes with crazing, which are fine lines on the surface of the dish, can potentially harbor bacteria and may not be safe for serving food, especially if the crazing is extensive. It is recommended to avoid using dishes with crazing for serving food to ensure safety.
Yes, polypropylene dishes are generally considered microwave safe for heating food.
Yes, the cutting board finish is food safe for preparing and serving food.
Off-course, but not for all. There are many food trucks that provide food service by serving veg and non-veg food dishes. To handle small functions, food trucks are the best option. I will suggest eating the best and delightful food from Meat Mechanics which is in Australia.
Yes, these dishes are microwave safe.
I have some ironstone dishes which say on the bottom of the 10" plates that they can be put in the microwave. On the other hand, they have developed crazing. There are fine cracks under the glaze.
The recommended temperature for serving hot food is 140F (60C) or above to ensure it is safe to eat and enjoyable.
Yes, unbreakable microwave safe dishes are a good option for everyday use in the kitchen because they are durable, convenient for reheating food, and reduce the risk of breakage compared to traditional dishes.
This depends a bit on the actual dinnerware. I suppose crazing can be done to make a special finish and then covered with another see through finish. In this case, the crazing is only for decorative purposes and is perfectly safe. Crazing otherwise in dinnerware that is not supposed to have them is another story. These micro-fractures are not possible to properly clean out and can contain bacteria and fungus. With time and not high heat and disinfectant soap, this can potentially be a health risk. I would not worry too much about it as I always use very hot water or even a dishwasher at high temperature when cleaning my dinnerware.
One easy way to keep food from getting cold on the plate is to warm up the plates before you serve the food. Placing oven safe places in the oven on low for a few minutes before serving can keep the food warm longer. Even sticking them in the microwave with a cup of water before serving can warm them up as well.
Yes, it is safe to eat thyme stems. They are edible and can be used in cooking to add flavor to dishes. However, the stems can be tough and fibrous, so they are often removed before serving.
No, it is not safe to put plastic plates in the microwave for heating food as they can melt or release harmful chemicals into the food. It is recommended to use microwave-safe dishes made of glass or ceramic for heating food in the microwave.
For warming trays, it's best to use dishes that are oven-safe and can withstand low temperatures. Glass, ceramic, and metal dishes are ideal, as they retain heat well. Avoid using plastic or non-oven-safe materials, as they can warp or melt. Additionally, shallow dishes work better for even heating and easy access to food.
