What can a Himalayan Salt Plate do exactly and what is it? Salt plates are slabs of Himalayan pink rocks that act as a heating tray for grilling. You can use it to make your chicken, shrimp, fish, etc.
Using salt plates not only add flavor to your food, but it also has its own health benefits. It improves blood circulation, it gives you a healthier libido, provides support to your respiratory functions, aids with blood sugar, and keeps the pH of your body balanced.
HOW TO USE:

• Use double oven-mitts when handling the plate
• Start by heating the block
• Gradual heat is required for the slab of salt to work best
• Put it on the grill for 15 minutes (low heat)
• Bring it up to a medium for 10 minutes
• Raise it to a high for another 10 minutes
• Throw on your meat or vegetable on the plate
• But don’t season the food too much as the salt rock provides that for you

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS:

• After using the plate, leave it out to cool overnight as the salt plate retains heat for a while
• Run some hot water in the sink, and rinse the plate. Do not soak.
• Scrape off residue with a scouring sponge or metal spatula after removing from water.
• Quickly rinse again in hot water to clean
• Dry with a clean dish cloth whilst being careful as you don’t want it to fall on your foot.
• Let it air dry on the counter.

Let me tell you the secret to holiday baking success: You can fully bake pumpkin pies right now and freeze them to enjoy later. Because of their fat content, fully baked pie crusts freeze beautifully, and the rich custard fillings of pumpkin pie and sweet potato seem as if they were designed for freezing too. There are a few extra steps that make freezing baked pumpkin pies easier, but they aren't any harder than baking the pie itself.

Baking a Pumpkin Pie for Freezing a pumpkin pie destined for the freezer doesn't require a special recipe. You can bake your favorite pie recipe as you normally would, with one suggested exception: Bake the pie in a disposable aluminum pie pan. These pie pans are thinner, meaning that the pie will freeze faster and therefore avoid developing large ice crystals, which can ruin the texture of the pie. Plus you avoid putting your favorite glass or ceramic pie pan in the freezer, leaving it free to bake another pie in before Thanksgiving.

Wrapping a Pumpkin Pie from FreezingOnce baked, cool the pie completely. This will take several hours on a cooling rack at room temperature. Then wrap the pie tightly in several layers of plastic wrap to ensure it is tightly sealed. I like to wrap the wrapped pie in single layer of aluminum foil for extra protection against freezer burn, but this step is purely optional. Freeze the pie completely on a level freezer shelf for up to a month.
​

Thawing a Frozen Pumpkin PieRemove the pie from the freezer and move it to the fridge at least 12 hours before you'd like to eat the pie. Thawing at room temperature can cause the filling to weep, leaving a soggy crust in its wake. A long, slow thaw is the way to go. Occasionally the plastic wrap will leave a few blemishes on the pie post-freezing; cover these with a sprinkle of cinnamon-sugar or a generous dollop of whipped cream.

How To Freeze Pumpkin PieMakes 1 frozen pie, ready for thawing for Thanksgiving Day
What You NeedIngredients
1 fully baked pumpkin pie, preferably in a foil pie pan
Equipment
Plastic wrap
Aluminum foil
Freezer tape
Instructions

1. Cool the pie completely. Cool the pie completely on a wire rack at room temperature. This will take several hours.
2. Tightly wrap the pie. Wrap the pie tightly in a few layers of plastic wrap. An additional wrap of aluminum foil is optional, but recommended.
3. Label and freeze the pie. Label the pie with the freeze date. Freeze on a level shelf until solid.
4. Thaw overnight before serving. Remove the aluminum foil if using and thaw in the fridge overnight, making sure the pie is on a level shelf in the refrigerator as it thaws.
