FAQs
Are these pans dishwasher safe?
No, it is recommended to wash these pans by hand to preserve the integrity of the enamel coating.
Can I use these on an induction hob?
Yes, the solid cast iron base is fully compatible with induction, gas, electric, and ceramic hobs.
Do I need to season these pans?
No, the vitreous enamel interior does not require traditional seasoning like raw cast iron pans.
What is the maximum oven temperature?
The set is safe to use in ovens up to a maximum temperature of 260°C.
Are the materials safe for cooking?
Yes, the enamel interior is PFAS, PFOA, and PTFE free.
What should I do if the pan chips?
While the enamel is durable, if it chips, avoid using metal utensils and handle with care. If the cooking surface is severely damaged, consider replacing the pan to prevent flaking into food.
Troubleshooting
Food is sticking to the surface
Ensure the pan is properly preheated before adding oil and food. Avoid overheating the pan, which can cause food to burn and stick.
The enamel has white marks after washing
These are often mineral deposits from hard water. Wipe the surface with a small amount of vinegar or lemon juice to remove them.
The handle is too hot to touch
Always use a heat-resistant oven mitt or handle sleeve when moving the pan from the hob or oven.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before first use, wash the pans in warm soapy water and dry them thoroughly. While the enamel interior is durable, avoid using metal utensils that may scratch or chip the finish; silicone or wooden tools are recommended. Always use oven mitts, as the cast iron handles will retain heat during and after cooking. After use, allow the pans to cool completely before washing by hand. While the enamel finish simplifies cleanup, avoid using harsh abrasive scouring pads. Never place hot pans directly into cold water, as thermal shock can damage the enamel coating.
