FAQs

Can I use metal utensils with this griddle plate?

It is recommended to use silicone, wooden, or plastic utensils to protect the non-stick coating and ensure its longevity. Metal utensils may scratch the surface.

How do I clean the griddle plate if food is heavily burnt on?

Soak the griddle plate in warm, soapy water for a period, then use a soft sponge or nylon brush. Avoid steel wool or abrasive cleaners. If necessary, you can gently simmer some water on the hob in the griddle plate to loosen stubborn bits before cleaning.

Are the skewers dishwasher safe?

Yes, the six stainless steel skewers are dishwasher safe for convenient cleaning.

What is the maximum oven temperature the griddle plate can withstand?

The griddle plate is oven safe up to 250°C (480°F).

Can I use this griddle plate on an induction hob?

Yes, this griddle plate is compatible with all hob types, including induction.

How do the detachable handles work?

The handles have a secure clip mechanism that attaches to the sides of the griddle plate, allowing for safe lifting and transport. They can be detached for easier storage or if placing the griddle directly into a very hot oven where handles might be exposed to excessive heat.

Will this griddle plate create smoke in my kitchen?

While all grilling can produce some smoke, the deep griddle lines are designed to channel away fats and oils, which can reduce flare-ups and excessive smoking compared to flat griddles. Ensure good ventilation in your kitchen.

Troubleshooting

Food sticking to the griddle plate

Ensure the plate is adequately preheated before adding food. Do not overcrowd the plate. Check that the non-stick surface has not been damaged by abrasive cleaning.

Uneven cooking

Ensure the griddle plate is placed evenly on the hob. Allow sufficient preheating time for uniform heat distribution. Avoid stirring food too frequently.

Handles feel loose

Ensure the handles are fully clicked into place. Detach and reattach them firmly. Check for any debris obstructing the connection points.

Food not searing properly

Increase the heat on your hob. Ensure the food is dry before placing it on the hot griddle. Do not move the food too soon after placing it on the plate.
