How to use

Before you start cooking, always ensure there is oil, butter, or liquid in the pan.

When cooking, use wooden, nylon, or silicone utensils to protect the surface from scratching or chipping.

What to consider before purchase

Usage recommendations

Allow the pan to cool down completely before washing. Exposing a hot vessel to cold water can cause thermal shock and damage the surface. If food residue is stuck, use soap, hot water, and a non-abrasive pad to clean it.
