No there is no way to seal it for serving.
You can, however, find a liner bowl - a bit of Tupperware, or a nice clear glass bowl that fits nicely and accents the piece, and keep the food in that.
The problem with any applied coatings is that they will wear off, etch due to acids in foods such as vinegar, tomatoes, or due to salts, etc. thus allowing contact with the permanent glazing which contains lead which can leech into foods and you can slowly poison everyone who eats those foods.
How do you work with polymer clay canes?

You're reading I have old Mexican earthenware pottery which is presumed to have lead in the glaze. I don't plan to cook in it and would like to know if there is some way to seal it to make it safe for use as serving pieces. The food would often be hot.
