How do I care for my Granitestone non-stick & ceramic cookware?

Even though Granitestone non-stick cookware is durable, only proper use and care will maximize their lifespan. Below are few tips on how to care for your pans

Never Use Harsh Cleaning Agents

You don’t need to clean your pans using harsh cleaning agents. Due to their non-stick properties, food slips off easily from the pans. For this reason, the pans are easy to clean. A soft sponge or cloth and mild soap are enough to clean your pans. Don’t use scouring powders or scrubbing pads made from steel wool or nylon. You don’t need a scrub as this might damage the cooking surface.

Avoid Cooking On High Heat

Even though the pans can withstand a high temperature, this is only to some extent. Too much heat will damage the materials the pans are made of. For instance, ceramic conducts heat efficiently, so it doesn’t need a high temperature to cook your food. The high temperature will damage its properties. Medium heat is enough to cook your food when using Granitestone non-stick cookware.

Avoid Using Cooking Sprays

Never use cooking sprays on your pans. Most times, these oil sprays contain chemicals that destroy the non-stick cooking surface of the cookware. They also cause build-ups, which become difficult to clean. With Granitestone non-stick, you don’t need to apply cooking oil sprays or rub the surfaces with oil or butter before you cook.

Wash Before Use

Before using Granitestone cookware for the first time, ensure you wash it before using it. Washing it removes the sealants, chemicals, dust particles, etc., that are on the pan. You can use warm, soapy water and a mild sponge to wash the pan. This ensures that your food isn’t contaminated. Also, season the pan before the first use.

Season The Pans Regularly

Seasoning is the process of applying oil to your pan’s cooking surface and heating to maximize its lifespan and prevent rust. Your Granitestone non-stick cookware must be seasoned properly and periodically if you want them to always be in a proper working condition.
