Unlike what you might think, the non-stick pan is a specialist... perfect for gently cooking fish, vegetables, legumes, grains, etc. without letting them colour. I’m also ideal for simmering stews, reheating ready-meal elements and thickening sauces without affecting taste, colour or flavor. I’m not a generalist pan: if you want to sear, brown or grill, use a steel pan instead.

Use and care instructions

Before using your cookware for the first time, wash it with hot soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge. Thoroughly rinse and carefully dry. Follow the following seasoning steps:

1. Pour 1 mm of oil on the bottom of the pan.

2. Heat oil to smoke point.

3. Turn off heat and allow to cool.

4. Remove oil and wipe pan with paper tissue.

    

5. Heat pan again for 2 minutes without oil. Your pan is ready to be used.

    

Compatibility and Oven Use

• Suitable for use on any cooking surface, including induction.

   

• All products with stainless steel handles are suitable for use in the oven.

   

• Precautions for use in a conventional oven for other products:

   

  • Do not use the broil function.

     

  • Do not exceed 400°F for a maximum of 10 minutes.

     

Induction Cooktop Recommendations

To preserve the durability of your cookware when using induction:

• Match the size of the burner to the diameter of the base of the cookware.

   

• Gradually increase the temperature.

• Avoid using the booster function.

• Do not overheat when empty.

Usage Notes

• Handle with care after long cooking times or oven use (risk of burning).

• With use, steel cookware becomes discoloured (turning bluish or blackening). This is a natural reaction.

• Do not leave food sitting in this cookware.

• Do not use acidic food (tomatoes, white wine, lemon, etc.) in your steel cookware.

   

Clean up

• Wash with a sponge and hot water.

   

• Deglaze if residues are attached or let soak for a few minutes, then scrape.

   

• Not dishwasher safe.

   

Care

• Do not store in a damp place.

   

• You can lightly oil the pan: apply 1 or 2 drops of oil (e.g., olive oil) to absorbent paper and gently rub the pan, inside and out. This creates a protective layer against oxidation. Wipe with a cloth or absorbent paper.

   

• It is normal for the paper to colour; this is due to the seasoning process and does not mean another cleaning is necessary.
