For optimal performance and to prevent food from sticking, it is recommended to season the pan lightly before its first use. Heat the pan over medium heat, add a small amount of cooking oil (e.g., canola, grapeseed), and spread it evenly. Heat until the oil shimmers, then remove from heat and let it cool. Wipe out any excess oil with a paper towel.

2. താപനില നിയന്ത്രണം

Stainless steel pans heat efficiently. Start with medium heat and adjust as needed. Overheating can cause food to stick and may lead to discoloration of the pan.

3. Cooking with Uncoated Stainless Steel

For best results with uncoated stainless steel:

• മുൻകൂട്ടി ചൂടാക്കൽ: Always preheat the pan before adding food. A good test is to sprinkle a few drops of water into the hot pan; if they bead up and dance, the pan is ready. If they evaporate immediately, the pan is too hot. If they just sit there, it's not hot enough.
• എണ്ണ: Add cooking oil after preheating. Use enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan.
• ഭക്ഷണം റിലീസ്: Allow food to cook undisturbed until it naturally releases from the pan. Attempting to move food too early can cause sticking.

4. Pouring Rim

The pan features an extra-wide pouring rim designed for drip-free pouring of liquids, reducing spills and mess.

5. Oven Use

The WMF Gourmet Plus frying pan is oven safe up to 250°C (482°F). Ensure the handle is not exposed to direct flame or excessive heat that could damage it beyond this temperature.

പരിപാലനവും ശുചീകരണവും

1. Dishwasher Safety

Your WMF Gourmet Plus frying pan is dishwasher-safe. However, hand washing is recommended for best results and to maintain the pan's appearance over time.

2. Hand Washing

• Allow the pan to cool completely before washing.
• Wash with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or cloth.
• For stubborn food residues, soak the pan in warm, soapy water for a period before cleaning.
• Avoid using steel wool or harsh abrasive cleaners, as these can scratch the stainless steel surface.
• Dry the pan thoroughly after washing to prevent water spots.

3. Removing Stubborn Stains

For discoloration or stubborn stains, a stainless steel cleaner or a paste made from baking soda and water can be used. Apply, let sit for a few minutes, then scrub gently and rinse thoroughly.

4. സംഭരണം

ട്രബിൾഷൂട്ടിംഗ്

Food Sticking

If food consistently sticks, ensure the pan is properly preheated and sufficient cooking oil is used. Allow food to develop a crust before attempting to move it. For delicate foods, consider using slightly more oil or a lower heat setting.

നിറവ്യത്യാസം

Blue or rainbow-like discoloration can occur due to high heat or mineral deposits from water. This is harmless and does not affect cooking performance. It can often be removed with a stainless steel cleaner or a solution of vinegar and water.
