# According to Ashkenazim, a pot of food, which was taken from the fire, one may not be returned to the fire unless it fulfills the following conditions.
*the fire is covered (with something that upon which one wouldn't cook during the week like a blech),
*the food is fully cooked,
*the food has not completely cooled off,
*the pot was taken with intent to be put back, and
*the pot is being held (and may be placed on a dry area except the floor while being held). <ref> Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata 1:18 </ref>

# There’s a rabbinic prohibition in returning cooked foods to a fire on Shabbat because it looks like cooking. <Ref> Baal HaMoar 16b, Rashba (38b D”H MeKlal) in name of some geonim, Ritva (40b D”H VeAskina), and Ran (17b D”H Bei Rav Ashi) write that the prohibition of Chazara is a gezerah of Chazal because it looks like cooking when one heats up cold food on Shabbat. </ref>
