Hot ramekins/mini cocottes on non-LC plates
Hi, y'all, sub newbie here and OMG am I enjoying your posts! When you serve hot foods in the Le Creuset ramekins or mini cocottes on non-LC plates (porcelain or ceramic), do you protect the plate from heat shock with a coaster or cork mat or something? Do you warm the plates in the oven ahead of time? Asking because I use discontinued Sango "Tango" salad plates and saucers (1997-2001) as dessert plates; they are marked "oven-safe" but I have no idea what max temp is. I am thinking of getting some LC ramekins and mini cocottes or serving hot desserts (e.g., apple crisp, souffle) on them, so after a few minutes of cooling on the stove after cooking, they'd be at a temperature of around 320F to 400F.
