How to Use This Product

To use the plate for cooking, heat it gradually on a stovetop or grill, starting with a low temperature to prevent cracking. Once the plate is hot, place your ingredients directly onto the surface to sear or lightly grill. For cold service, place the plate in the refrigerator or freezer for several hours before using it to present sushi, fruit, or cheeses. After use, let the plate cool completely to room temperature. Scrub it gently with a soft brush or sponge to remove residues and rinse with a small amount of water. Do not use soap or submerge it in water, as the salt will absorb the scent and dissolve. Allow it to air dry for at least twenty-four hours before storing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this salt plate in a standard oven?

While this plate can be used in various settings, heating it in an oven requires extreme caution. You must place the plate in a cold oven and increase the temperature very slowly in stages to avoid thermal shock, which can cause the salt to crack or break.

How do I know when the plate is hot enough for searing?

You can test the temperature by splashing a few drops of water onto the surface; if they sizzle and evaporate immediately, the plate is ready for cooking. Always use heat-resistant gloves when handling the plate as it retains a high level of heat for a long period.

Does the plate require any seasoning or oil before use?

You can lightly brush the surface with a high-smoke-point oil to help prevent sticking, though many foods can be cooked directly on the salt. The plate itself seasons the food naturally as it cooks, so there is typically no need to add extra salt to your ingredients beforehand.
