How do you keep plates warm at a party?

Answer 1

If you have a hot plate part on your oven, then you can put the scrambled eggs on a plate (covered) and put it on the hot plate. If you cook it until it is very nearly completely cooked and then put it on the lowest heat possible, then that should keep it warm whilst cooking the final part. Another way is to put it in one of those hostess trollies and put them in there. A crock pot will do the trick nicely with a user friendly lid. I also use the regular oven on 140-150 degrees to keep food warm when serving a larger croud. If they start to dry out add a little water to them and cover with aluminum foil.

Answer 2

to keep hard shell corn tortillas warm before serving, heat your oven (a toster oven is pest) to 200° F, place tortillas in a 9x13 backing pan, glass or terra cotta are best, especially if they have a matching lid. Heat uncovered for 10 to fifteen minutes--if the tortillas begin to brown, remove them and cover. Foil will work for this, but use two or more layers to retain heat better. Leave covered until served.

Before the party put the plates in the microwave for a little while. Then when the party starts put them on the table.

Use "Heat Retentive Plates" which get very hot by preheating them only one minute in the MW oven but you can handle them by the rim with the bare hands:
