    How to Care for Your Stainless Steel Frying Pan

    Proper care helps maintain your cookware's performance and appearance for years to come.

    1. Preheat Before Cooking: Warm the pan gradually before adding cooking oil.

    2. Use Moderate Heat: Medium heat is sufficient for many everyday cooking techniques.

    3. Allow Food to Release Naturally: Let proteins develop a seared crust before flipping.

    4. Avoid Overheating: Do not leave an empty pan over high heat for extended periods.

    5. Cool Before Washing: Allow the cookware to cool before cleaning.

    6. Clean Gently: Use a soft sponge or non-scratch pad and mild dish soap.

    7. Restore the Finish: A stainless steel-compatible cleaner, such as Bar Keepers Friend, may help remove discoloration when used according to its instructions.

    Although dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended to help preserve the stainless steel finish.
