Update: it took time. And then a quick pry with a knife. Saved the dishes. Ravioli saved too but for raccoons outside probably lol. What I learned about physics…sheesh.

Probably sit the bowl in warm water with ice on the plate. That will increase the pressure inside and aide in the separation.
Would you want the opposite?
I thought heading the bowl will expand it slightly and increase the suction, cooling it will shrink it and reduce it.
The air inside is what is causing the vacuum heat the air, expansion, less vacuum. Cool the air, shrinks, more suction.
Heating both likely the smoothest solution.
Thanks! I had not factored that in
I could be wrong, but I really believe heating the bowl is the correct answer.
Why would you want to cool the plate?
You want to create expansion in one and shrinkage in the other so that you have movement that helps break the seal. Technically you could do one or the other, but it’ll create more net change if you do both.
