Proper care extends the life of your cookware and maintains optimal cooking performance:

Stainless Steel Maintenance#

• Allow pots to cool slightly before cleaning to prevent warping

• Soak to release stuck-on food rather than scrubbing with abrasives

• Use Bar Keepers Friend or similar cleansers for stubborn stains or discoloration

• Remove water spots with vinegar solution if desired

• Season occasionally with oil for improved food release

Enameled Cast Iron Care#

• Allow to cool before immersing in water to prevent thermal shock

• Use nylon or silicone scrapers rather than metal utensils

• Soak with warm water to release stuck-on food

• Avoid abrasive cleaners that might damage enamel

• Store with paper towel or cushioning to protect edges if stacking

Copper Maintenance#

• Clean with mild soap and water for regular use

• Polish with commercial copper cleaner or lemon juice and salt mixture when desired

• Dry thoroughly to prevent water spots

• Apply food-grade mineral oil to unpolished areas if preferred
