FAQs
What types of dishes can I bake in this tin?
This tin is ideal for baking round tarts, quiches, pies, and flans, especially those with a slightly deeper filling due to its construction.
Is the non-stick coating safe?
Yes, the ILAG non-stick technology used is Swiss-designed and is toxic-free, including being free from PFAS chemicals.
How do I best clean the tin?
While the tin is dishwasher safe, hand washing with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth is recommended to maintain the integrity and longevity of the non-stick coating.
Can I use metal utensils with this tin?
It is strongly recommended to avoid using metal utensils, as they can scratch and damage the non-stick surface. Opt for silicone, nylon, or wooden tools.
What is the warranty period for this product?
The Zyliss Tart Tin comes with a 5-year guarantee from the date of purchase.
Why is the base removable?
The removable base allows for easy and clean release of your baked goods, preventing the crust from breaking or sticking when you serve your tart or pie.
How does the heavy-duty carbon steel help?
The heavy-duty carbon steel ensures excellent and even heat distribution across the base and sides of the tin, promoting consistent baking and preventing issues like soggy bottoms or overcooked edges.
Troubleshooting
Baked goods are sticking to the tin.
Ensure the tin was properly greased before baking, even with the non-stick coating. Check that the non-stick surface has not been scratched or damaged by abrasive cleaners or metal utensils. Consider re-seasoning the non-stick surface by lightly greasing and heating the empty tin before your next use.
Uneven baking (soggy bottom or burnt edges).
Verify that the oven temperature is accurate. Ensure the tin is placed in the center of the oven for even heat circulation. For very wet fillings, consider pre-baking the crust slightly before adding the filling.
Difficulty removing the base.
Ensure there are no baked-on residues hindering the base's movement. Gently tap the sides of the tin to loosen the base if it seems stuck. Make sure the base is properly aligned when reassembling for use.
Non-stick coating appears damaged.
Cease using abrasive cleaning methods or metal utensils immediately. If the damage is minor, try lightly greasing the tin. If the coating is significantly peeling or damaged, it may be time to consider replacement to ensure food safety and optimal performance.
