HOW TO USE

First use:

- Wash the pot in warm, running water, and then dry it thoroughly, best using a paper towel.

- Coat the pot surface carefully with a thick layer of any edible oil for maintenance.

- Fire the pot on a burn or in an oven in high temperature (170-200°C) for 60 minutes, until some oil is absorbed into the porous surface of the pot.

- After the pot cools down, wipe the excess oil using a paper towel, for example.

- The maintenance activities should be carried out in a well ventilated room, as the hot oil may produce smoke and unpleasant smell.

- The better this first maintenance activity is carried out, the longer the pot will perform its function.

After each use:

- Wash the pot right after it is used, but never soak it.

- Dry the pot carefully and smear a thin layer of edible oil throughout its surface.

- Store the pot in a dry place.

Unsuitable maintenance of the pot may lead to it becoming corroded.

This may be caused by extended soaking, storing undried cast iron cookware in cabinets, or storing acidic food in cast iron cookware. Any rust stains on cast iron cookware should be removed with a wire scourer or caustic soda – scour the pot surface long enough to remove all traces of rust, without worrying about damaging the pot. Afterwards, repeat the actions described in the “First use” section.

Attention!

Before and after each use, wash the pot carefully, dry it, and apply a teaspoon of edible oil onto its inner surface. Never leave the pot empty over a flame or other heat source. Cast iron is sensitive to sudden changes in temperature, which is why the pot should be heated gradually in order to prevent it from fracturing. Remember not to expose it to sudden temperature changes during storage as well.

Never pour cold water in the pot when it is hot - it might become permanently damaged otherwise.
