Default Re: Bottom of food burning

My wife is a potter and she just said no glaze. Reasons, (1) some glazes for low fire (read oven) temps will give off lead or other types of fumes. (2) the glaze expands and contracts at different rates than does the clay the tiles are made from. This results in cracking sometimes with force (called an explosion)

Hope this helps.
