Most clay cookware can be used in both conventional ovens and microwave ovens. Before using, briefly rinse the clay roaster and lid in water - this allows a release of steam inside as your food cooks different types of clay utensils. Cleaning and Care of Clay CookwareYou need to soak clay cookware every time before using it. Usually 10 minutes is enough time for clay to soak the necessary amount of water. When you use clay utensil for the first time after you bought it, it's a good idea to soak it a little longer and then wash it with a stiff brush to remove any remaining clay dust. By soaking the pot in water before cooking, moisture is absorbed by the clay. The tiny water particles are released during cooking increasing flavor and tenderness of your food. When washing clay pots, stay away from any type of soap or cleanser. Clay surface may absorb soap and then give unwanted taste to your food. As an alternative, you can use baking soda to get rid of grease. Same as glass cookware, the clay utensils are very sensitive to the rapid changes of temperature. Hot clay pot can easily crack if it touches cold water or even cold metal trivet. Where to Buy Clay Cookware
