Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This pot is ready for use straight out of the box. Ensure it is placed on a stable, level stovetop surface.
Compatibility: The flat, induction-ready base makes this pot compatible with all common stovetop types, including gas, electric, and induction.
Care:
- Before First Use: Wash the pot and lid in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
- Cooking: Use low to medium heat for most cooking. High heat is generally not required due to cast aluminum's excellent heat retention. Avoid using metal utensils that can scratch the non-stick surface; opt for silicone, wood, or plastic. Do not use abrasive scouring pads or harsh detergents on the interior.
- Cleaning: Allow the pot to cool before washing. Clean the interior with a soft sponge and warm, soapy water. The durable enamel exterior can be wiped clean. Dishwasher use is not recommended as it can degrade the non-stick coating and dull the exterior finish over time. Handwashing will prolong the life and performance of the non-stick interior.
