FAQs

Is this pan truly non-stick?

Stainless steel pans are not inherently non-stick like those with a coating. However, with proper preheating and the use of cooking fat, food can be cooked without sticking. The mirror finish does not add non-stick properties.

Can I use metal utensils with this frying pan?

While stainless steel is durable, it is recommended to use wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils to prevent scratching the mirror-polished finish and preserve its appearance.

How does this pan perform on an induction hob?

This frying pan is fully compatible with induction hobs, providing efficient and responsive heating for precise cooking control.

What is the warranty period for this frying pan?

Please refer to the product packaging or the retailer's website for specific warranty information, as warranty periods can vary.

Can I cook acidic foods like tomato sauce in this pan?

Yes, the high-quality stainless steel is resistant to corrosion and suitable for cooking acidic foods. The deep sides are especially useful for preparing sauces.

Why is hand-washing recommended if it's dishwasher safe?

While the pan is designed to be dishwasher safe for convenience, repeated cycles in a dishwasher can, over time, dull the mirror-polished finish. Hand-washing with a mild detergent and soft cloth helps maintain its original shine for longer.

Troubleshooting

Food sticking to the pan

Ensure the pan is adequately preheated before adding oil and food. Use the correct amount of cooking oil or fat. Avoid overcrowding the pan. For stainless steel, allow food to form a crust before attempting to move it.

Uneven heating

Ensure the pan is placed correctly on the heat source, covering the element or burner appropriately. For induction, make sure the pan base is compatible and centered. Some variations in heating are normal for stainless steel, especially during rapid temperature changes.

Discoloration on the pan surface

This can be caused by overheating or mineral deposits from water. Use a stainless steel cleaner or a mixture of vinegar and water to gently clean the affected areas. Ensure the pan is fully dry after washing.

Handle feels loose

Check if the handle is riveted or screwed on. If screwed, it may need tightening. If riveted and loose, contact customer support as this may indicate a manufacturing defect.

Care Instructions:

  • Before First Use: Wash the pan in warm, soapy water with a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
  • Everyday Cleaning: Allow the pan to cool before washing. It is dishwasher safe, but for best results and to maintain the mirror-polished finish, hand-washing with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge is recommended. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface.
  • Stubborn Residue: If food residue is difficult to remove, soak the pan in warm, soapy water for a few minutes. For tougher stuck-on food, gently heat a small amount of water in the pan on the hob, then scrape with a wooden or silicone utensil. Avoid using metal utensils that could damage the surface.
  • Maintaining Shine: To restore the shine, you can use a stainless steel cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water, rubbing gently with a soft cloth.
  • Storage: Store the pan in a dry place. To prevent scratches when stacking, place a cloth or pan protector between it and other cookware.
