FAQs
Is this pan truly non-stick?
This pan is constructed from stainless steel and does not have a non-stick coating. However, by properly preheating the pan and using a small amount of cooking oil, you can achieve excellent non-stick performance.
Can I use this pan on my induction cooktop?
Yes, the Blackmoor Pro Range frying pan is fully compatible with all hob types, including induction.
What is the best way to clean this frying pan?
For best results, hand wash with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners or metal scouring pads. Allow the pan to cool completely before washing.
Is it safe to put this pan in the dishwasher?
While the pan is durable, hand washing is recommended to maintain its appearance and longevity. Dishwasher detergents can be harsh and may dull the finish over time.
What does PFAS-free mean for my cooking?
PFAS-free means the pan is made without per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, which are chemicals sometimes found in non-stick coatings. This provides a healthier cooking option.
How long will this pan last?
Crafted from high-grade stainless steel with robust construction, this pan is designed for long-lasting performance with proper care and maintenance.
Can I use metal utensils with this pan?
It is best to avoid metal utensils as they can scratch the mirror-polished interior surface. We recommend using utensils made of silicone, wood, or heat-resistant nylon.
Troubleshooting
Food sticks to the pan.
Ensure the pan was properly preheated before adding oil and food. Use an adequate amount of cooking oil or fat. Check if metal utensils were used, which can damage the surface.
Uneven cooking or hot spots.
Verify that the pan is centered correctly on the hob burner/element. Ensure the heat setting is appropriate for the food being cooked. The core is designed for even distribution, so this is less common if used correctly.
Discoloration on the interior (rainbow effect).
This is often caused by overheating or mineral deposits from water. It can usually be removed by cleaning with a mild vinegar and water solution or a specialized stainless steel cleaner.
Handle feels loose.
Check if the handle is still securely riveted. If the issue persists or the rivets appear damaged, discontinue use and contact customer support.

Compatibility: This pan is suitable for all standard hob types, including gas, electric, solid plate, halogen, ceramic, and importantly, induction hobs. It is also oven safe for temperatures suitable for general cookware.
Care:
- Preheating: Always preheat the pan over medium heat for 1-2 minutes before adding oil and food. This is crucial for achieving optimal cooking results and minimizing sticking.
- Cooking: Use a small amount of cooking oil or fat. Avoid using metal utensils that can scratch the surface; opt for silicone, wood, or plastic.
- Cleaning: Allow the pan to cool before washing. Wash with warm, soapy water using a soft cloth or sponge. For stubborn residue, soak in warm water or use a non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for stainless steel. Dishwasher use is not recommended as it can dull the finish over time.
- Storage: Store in a dry place. If stacking, use a pan protector to prevent scratches.
