I have put them raped in hot towels inside a big stock pot (like a double boiler kind of thing) until ready for use. It works for me...
Good luck!!!

Slowly. Sudden temperature change which is uneven throughout the material causes the break. If the temperature change is slow enough, then the material will all expand or contract evenly. That will prevent a break.
If you use the hot-water bath technique below, then the china should be placed in the water at room temperature. You would then heat the water with the china in it. Placing cold china in hot water means you will probably break the china.

The dishwasher's rinse cycle AND dry works.
OR you could put them in a low temp oven - about 150 degrees F or lower. You don't want the dishes so hot you can't handle them.
Thanks for asking your Q! I enjoyed answering it!

put them into your oven to keep warm at very low temperature (140 degrees F)

I would put them in the sink in hot water, until I have everything ready to serve.
I will dry them when they are hot and place on a chopping board.
Plate up.

carefully... only for a second. in general, china should not be very warm.

running them through the rinse cycle of your dishwasher works
