FAQs
How do I maintain the non-stick coating?
Always use silicone, nylon, or wooden utensils. Avoid abrasive cleaners and scouring pads. Lightly oil the surface before cooking, especially for searing. Clean the pan promptly after use.
Is this pan truly induction compatible?
Yes, the Salter Jewel Hex frying pan is designed to work effectively on induction hobs, as well as gas, electric, and halogen stovetops.
Can I use cooking spray on this pan?
While you can use cooking spray, it's recommended to use a small amount of liquid oil or butter for better performance and to preserve the non-stick coating over time. Cooking sprays can sometimes leave a residue.
What does '7x tougher than standard' mean?
This refers to laboratory testing comparing the durability of the Jewel Hex non-stick coating against Salter's standard non-stick coatings in terms of abrasion resistance. It indicates a significantly more robust surface for everyday cooking.
How should I clean the pan if it's dishwasher safe?
For dishwasher cleaning, place the pan on the top rack. However, hand washing with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge is recommended to prolong the life and performance of the non-stick coating.
What is the warranty period for this frying pan?
Please refer to the product packaging or Salter's official website for specific warranty details, as this information is not provided in the product description.
Is the pan oven-safe?
The product description does not specify oven-safe capabilities. It is designed for stovetop use. Avoid placing it in the oven unless explicitly stated otherwise by the manufacturer.
Troubleshooting
Food is sticking to the pan.
Ensure the pan is preheated properly and a small amount of oil or butter has been used. Clean the pan thoroughly to remove any residue from previous cooking and re-season the non-stick surface with a light coat of oil.
Uneven cooking or hot spots.
Verify the pan is centered on the heat source. Ensure the heat level is appropriate for the food being cooked. Heavy-duty aluminium construction generally ensures even heating, but extreme variations might indicate an issue with the stove itself.
Non-stick coating appears scratched or damaged.
Cease using metal utensils or abrasive cleaning methods. If damage is significant, it may be time to consider a replacement to ensure optimal performance and safety.
Pan is not heating up on induction stove.
Confirm that your induction hob is compatible with the pan's magnetic base. Ensure the pan is placed correctly on the hob's designated cooking zone.
