Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup:
Before first use, it is recommended to season the pan. Wash the pan with hot, soapy water and dry thoroughly. Apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the entire surface, inside and out. Place the pan in a preheated oven (around 375°F or 190°C) for one hour, then let it cool completely. Repeat this process 2-3 times for optimal seasoning.
Compatibility:
This pan is suitable for use on all heat sources, including gas, electric, and induction cooktops.
Care and Cleaning:
- Hand wash only. Use warm water and a stiff brush or sponge. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive scrubbers.
- For stubborn residue, simmer water in the pan for a few minutes to loosen food particles, then scrape gently with a wooden or nylon utensil.
- Dry the pan *immediately* and thoroughly after washing to prevent rust.
- Apply a very thin coat of cooking oil to the interior surface after drying, especially if storing for an extended period.
- Store in a dry place.
