Setup

Tindif Inizjali

Before first use, wash your new frying pan thoroughly with warm, soapy water. Rinse completely and dry with a soft cloth. This removes any manufacturing residues.

Preheating for Optimal Performance

Stainless steel pans require proper preheating to achieve optimal cooking results and minimize sticking. Follow these steps:

1. Place the empty pan on your stovetop over medium heat.
2. Allow the pan to heat for 2-3 minutes.
3. Perform the 'water bead test': Add a few drops of water to the pan. If the water forms small, mercury-like beads that dance across the surface, the pan is properly preheated. If the water immediately evaporates, the pan is not hot enough. If it sizzles and evaporates quickly, the pan is too hot (reduce heat and try again).
4. Once properly preheated, add your cooking oil or fat. Allow the oil to heat for about 30 seconds before adding food.

Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

Cooking with Stainless Steel

Stainless steel cookware is highly efficient at retaining and distributing heat. Always start with medium heat and adjust as needed. Avoid using excessively high heat, which can lead to food sticking and potential discoloration of the pan.

Using Oil and Fat

Always use a sufficient amount of cooking oil or fat to coat the bottom of the pan. This, combined with proper preheating, will help prevent food from sticking. For best results, use oils with a high smoke point.

Użu tal-forn

Your Tramontina frying pan is oven-safe up to 500°F (260°C). This allows you to start dishes on the stovetop and finish them in the oven. Always use oven mitts when handling the pan after it has been in the oven, as the stainless steel handle will become hot.

Manutenzjoni

Istruzzjonijiet għat-Tindif

Your Tramontina frying pan is dishwasher-safe for convenient cleaning. For hand washing, follow these guidelines:

• Allow the pan to cool completely before washing to prevent warping.
• Wash with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge or cloth.
• For stubborn food residues, soak the pan in warm, soapy water for a period before cleaning.
• Avoid using abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh scouring pads, as these can scratch the stainless steel surface.
• For discoloration or tough stains, a stainless steel cleaner (e.g., Bar Keeper's Friend) can be used according to the product's instructions.

Manku Kura

The cast stainless steel handle is designed to stay cool on the stovetop. However, it will become hot when used in the oven or if exposed to direct flame for extended periods. Always use oven mitts or a pot holder when handling a hot pan.

Issolvi l-problemi

Teħel tal-Ikel

• Ensure the pan is properly preheated using the 'water bead test' described in the Setup section.
• Use an adequate amount of cooking oil or fat to coat the entire cooking surface.
• Avoid overcrowding the pan, which can lower the temperature and lead to steaming rather than searing.

Discoloration (Blue/Rainbow Stains)

• Blue or rainbow-colored stains can appear on stainless steel due to overheating or certain minerals in water. This is a cosmetic issue and does not affect the pan's performance or safety.
• To remove these stains, create a paste with white vinegar and baking soda, apply it to the affected area, let it sit for a few minutes, then scrub gently with a soft sponge and rinse. Alternatively, use a specialized stainless steel cleaner.
