Notes:
- Before first use, season the pot: Wash and dry it completely. Apply a thin, even coat of cooking oil (vegetable oil, shortening, or lard), then wipe off any excess with a lint-free cloth. Place the pan upside down in a preheated oven or grill and heat for 1 hour. Let it cool fully to set the seasoning.
- Cast-iron pots get extremely hot, so always use pan mitts or pan holders when handling them.
- Avoid exposing a hot cast-iron pot to cold water or vice versa, as this can cause the pan to crack. Allow it to cool gradually before cleaning it.
- Despite efforts for accuracy, there may be some reasonable error due to manual measurement.
- Actual product colours may vary due to monitor settings & lightings.
General Care:
- Rinse thoroughly with warm water and dry completely. You can place the cookware in a warm oven for 15 minutes or use low heat to ensure it is completely dry.
- Because cast iron distributes heat evenly, it is preferable to cook on low to medium heat. Overheating can damage the seasoning and cause food to stick.
- Do not use sharp or metal objects on the cooking surface.
- Preheat the cookware on low heat for 5 minutes before gradually increasing the temperature.
Cleaning & Maintenance:
Step 1: Wash
Wash your cast-iron cookware by hand. A small amount of mild soap is acceptable. For stuck-on food, use a pan scraper. For stubborn residue, simmer a little water in the pan for 3–5 minutes, allow the pan to cool, and then scrape it off.
Step 2: Dry
Dry the cookware thoroughly with a lint-free cloth or paper towel. If you notice a small amount of black residue on the towel, it is just seasoning and is perfectly normal.
Step 3: Oil
Apply a very light layer of cooking oil to the surface. Wipe with a paper towel until no excess oil remains.
Step 4: Store
Once cooled, store in a cool, dry place. If storing with a lid, place a paper towel or newspaper between the lid and the pan to allow air circulation.
Re-seasoning:
Step 1: If you have quite a bit of rust, fill with water, bring to a boil and simmer for about 20 minutes. Remove hot water and let the cookware cool down. Then scour off the rust again.
Step 2: Preheat the oven to approximately 200 degrees Celsius, or heat up an outside grill.
Step 3: Wash the cast iron product with hot water and a stiff brush, and repeat.
Step 4: Rinse and dry.
Step 5: Apply warm oil, melted vegetable shortening or lard with either a clean lint-free cloth or quality paper towel over the entire product.
Step 6: Remove excess oil, as it will only flake off.
Step 7: Place upside down on an outside grill (to cut down smoke in the house), or place in a preheated oven (line the oven with foil to catch excess oil).
Step 8: Leave for 1 hour and allow to cool.
