Use & Care

Use

• Ideal for gas and electric cooktops; not compatible with induction cooktops.
• Oven safe to 430°F.
• To protect tin lining from damage, do not heat pan empty or at temperatures above 430ºF.
• Use wood, plastic or heat-resistant nylon tools to avoid scratching tin lining.

Care

• Allow dish to cool before washing.
• Hand-wash; dry immediately with a soft cloth.
• Avoid using steel wool, steel scouring pads or harsh detergents.
• Copper will develop a rich patina over time. This will not affect the pan's cooking performance. To keep the exterior looking new, use a copper polish or a combination of lemon and salt.
• Tin lining protects foods from reacting with copper but will become discolored with use. Depending on frequency of use and types of food cooked, tin lining may eventually have to be replaced. To prolong liner's usefulness, avoid cooking acidic ingredients in tin-lined cookware.
