Frying pan, Stainless steel
A Good frying pan made of stainless steel. The sandwich construction distributes heat evenly across the entire cooking surface.
Tips and usefull advice:
Before use:
• Remove stickers and wash the cooking utensil with washing-up liquid to remove any impurities still present from production.
• Pans without non-stick (Slip-Let®) coating will benefit from being pre-fried before use. This creates a thin layer of grease that provides a natural non-stick surface. Pre-frying of pans without non-stick (Slip-Let®) coating
• Brush a little oil on the inside and set over maximum heat for app. 5 minutes (until the oil begins to smoke). Turn off the heat and leave to cool. Do not use water for cooling.
• The dark layer of grease, which is now burnt onto the inside, should not be washed off.
During use:
• Always use the ring that fits the diameter of the cooking utensil.
• Avoid overheating the cooking utensil. A little oil in the pot/pan will sizzle when it reaches appropriate cooking temperature. During frying, we recommend turning the heat down to medium. If the oil begins to smoke, the pot/pan is too hot.
When used on induction plates - which are a very fast heating source:
• Pots and pans must never be warmed without their contents, as this can cause damage.
• Never add salt before the food boils - this can corrode stainless steel.
Especially for pans with non-stick (Slip-Let®) surfaces:
• Avoid using sharp tools, which can damage the coating - instead, use Eva Trio kitchen tools in nylon, specially designed for these products.
• Avoid keeping leftovers of food in the pan for too long, as the coating can get damaged.
After use:
• Pots are dishwasher proof.
• However, we do recommend that the pots are cleaned with a soft brush/sponge and washing-up liquid.
• Never use steel pads or detergents.
• A stainless steel polish can be used to clean outside surfaces.
• In the event of any discolouration on the inside or outside of the cookware, it can easily be removed using ordinary household vinegar on a soft cloth or a non-abrasive steel polish.
Cleaning of non pre-fried pans:
• Clean with a soft brush/sponge and washing-up liquid.
• If food has burnt onto the surface, pour in a mix of
water and washing-up liquid.
Cleaning of pre-fried pans:
• The layer of grease, formed by pre-frying, is best preserved by avoiding using washing-up liquid. Instead, simply clean with hot water. If anything sticks to the bottom, leave it to soak in water overnight and then bring it to the boil. Use a nylon sponge to clean.
• If the pan looses its layer of grease, we recommend repeating the pre-frying process.
Especially for pans with non-stick (Slip-Let®) surfaces:
• Clean with a soft brush/sponge and washing-up liquid.
• If the non-stick (Slip-Let®) surface gets darker with time, this will be due to a thin layer of carbonated protein from cooked food. This is easily removed by filling the pan with water and 4 - 5 spoonfuls of washing powder (for clothes) and leaving it to simmer for about 45 minutes. Stir occasionally with a washing-up brush or a nylon spatula. Repeat the process if necessary. Afterwards, clean the pan with washing-up liquid and coat the inside with a thin layer of vegetable cooking oil.
