Do I need to season this cast iron pan?

What is the capacity of the 22cm pan?

The 22cm pan has dimensions of H9.4 x W22 x D28.5cm and is suitable for preparing family-sized meals. Specific volume capacity is not provided.

Can I use this pan on an induction cooktop?

No, this cast iron casserole pan is not suitable for induction cooktops. It is compatible with gas, electric, and ceramic stovetops.

How do I clean the casserole pan?

Hand wash the pan with warm, soapy water after use. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or putting it in the dishwasher. Dry it thoroughly afterwards.

Is the pan oven-safe?

Yes, the Robert Dyas Cast Iron Casserole Pan is oven-safe up to 230 degrees Celsius.

What should I do if the outer enamel is peeling?

If you notice the outer enamel is peeling, inspect the pan carefully. While minor cosmetic issues might be acceptable, significant peeling could affect durability and food safety. It is best to use caution and potentially discontinue use if the integrity of the cooking surface is compromised.

Can I use metal utensils with this pan?

While cast iron is durable, it is generally recommended to use wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils with enamelled cast iron to prevent scratching or chipping the enamel surface over time.

Troubleshooting

Food sticking to the bottom.

Ensure adequate oil or cooking liquid is used. Preheating the pan gently before adding food can also help. If the sticking persists, check if the enamel coating is intact.

Uneven cooking.

Ensure the heat source is centered under the pan. Cast iron retains heat well, so a medium to low heat setting is often sufficient after initial heating.

Discoloration or staining.

This can occur with certain acidic foods or if not cleaned properly. Use a soft sponge and warm, soapy water. For stubborn stains, a paste of baking soda and water may help, followed by gentle rinsing and drying.

Enamel chipping or peeling.

Handle the pan with care to avoid dropping or severe impacts. If significant chipping or peeling occurs, especially if it exposes the raw cast iron, discontinue use to avoid contamination or further damage.
