Care & Maintenance
Hand wash only and dry immediately after cleaning to help prevent moisture related corrosion. Season each pan before first use and maintain the cooking surface with a light coating of oil after washing. Avoid dishwashers, prolonged soaking, and harsh detergents, as these may affect the seasoned finish. With proper care and regular seasoning, the pans will continue to develop enhanced non-stick performance and lasting durability over time.
