Earthenware is not the best temperature to fire functional food safe ware to as the temperature is to low to get good compatibility with a clay body, I would advise firing work to stoneware temperature and using stoneware glazes ideally glossy. Even then in order for the ceramic-ware to be classified as being food safe it would need to be test by a reputable testing company like "British Ceram"

Terracolor Powder Earthenware Glazes are a more cost effective and faster approach to glazing a larger volume of pots. Simply mix the powder with water and pass through a sieve to create a dipping glaze. It is important to note that especially on speckled glazes the residue left in the sieve should be returned to the glaze as this is what creates the speckled effect.
