How do you serve food on a chilled salt plate?
- Make sure the plate is dry.
- Chill it for 2 hours in the refrigerator or 1 hour in the freezer.
- Set it on a dry cloth, board, or serving tray.
- Arrange food just before guests sit down.
- Clear leftovers when the table is cleared.
Wet food and long contact pick up more salt. Thin slices of fish season in about 10 minutes, while melon or cheese can sit for 30 minutes or more. Our chilled serving guide lists timings for each food.
What can you serve on a salt plate?
Sashimi and crudo, melon and stone fruit, hard and aged cheese, cured meats, butter, and chocolate all work well. Try the chilled salt block sashimi recipe. Cold use needs no tempering, and the same plate can be heated for searing another day. Let a chilled plate return to room temperature before you heat it. The 2 plate set lets you keep one plate hot and one chilled.
After serving, wipe it with a barely damp cloth and let it dry fully before storage.
FAQ
About himalayan salt serving plates
Yes. One hour in the freezer is enough for serving. Make sure the plate is dry first, and let it come back to room temperature before you ever heat it, or the sudden change can crack it.
Not if you serve it promptly. Dry foods like cheese pick up very little. Wet foods like fish and melon season faster, so arrange them just before serving and clear them within about 30 minutes.
