Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
This pan comes pre-seasoned and is ready for its first use. Ensure it is clean before cooking.
Compatibility:
- Stovetops: Suitable for electric, gas, and induction cooktops.
- Oven: Oven-safe for finishing dishes or baking.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wash by hand with hot water and a stiff brush or non-abrasive sponge. Avoid using harsh detergents or steel wool, as they can strip the seasoning.
- Drying: Immediately and thoroughly dry the pan with a towel after washing. You can also place it on a low heat burner for a minute to ensure all moisture is evaporated.
- Seasoning (if needed): For long-term maintenance, apply a very thin layer of cooking oil (like vegetable or flaxseed oil) to the entire surface after drying and heat it on the stovetop until it just begins to smoke. Wipe off any excess oil.
- Storage: Store in a dry place. If stacking, place a paper towel between pans to protect the surface and absorb any residual moisture.
