Not all the utensils of our different lines have same accessories.
Minerals in water or starches in food can leave a white film on stainless steel. This will not affect the performance of the cookware, but can be removed by rubbing the area with a stainless steel cleaner such as Royal Shine™ by Royal Prestige®.
Stainless steel can scratch if handled incorrectly. Scratches do not affect the cookware performance, and therefore are not considered defects in workmanship or material. To avoid scratches: (1) Knives or sharp kitchen tools should not be used for cutting, stirring, or serving foods. (2) Do not use an electric mixer in your cookware. (3) Always stack cookware carefully for storage.
Water spots (scaling) may occur due to the water condition in the area that you live in. To prevent them, after washing always rinse cookware with warm water and dry immediately. If water spots appear, apply a stainless steel cleanser, such as RoyalShine™ by Royal Prestige®, onto the dry cookware and with a moistened paper towel, rub in a circular motion. Once the stain is removed, wash pan in warm, soapy water and dry.
Avoid scraping the pan or using metal scouring pads. It is ok to use Scotch-Brite™ on the inside, but not the outside. Fill pan half full with water, place on the stove and bring to a boil for a few minutes. Allow water to cool and wash the pan as normal. For severe fouling you may want to use a spray-on oven cleaner. Spray liberally, let sit overnight and by morning the burned-on food should come off easily.
No! Never use your cookware in the microwave or in a broiler unit.
After cooking, there may be a tight water seal between the pot and the lid. If you are unable to remove the lid because it is stuck, simply open the Redi-Temp® valve to equalize pressure and the lid can be easily removed. If the lid does not have a valve or cannot be opened, then place the sealed pot back on the burner on low for approximately 1 to 2 minutes. When the warm air inside the pot expands, it will break the seal and the lid can be lifted off effortlessly. Always tilt the lid away from you to avoid steam burns.
Overheating or allowing a pan to boil dry will cause yellow, bronze, blue or rainbow tints on the stainless steel surface. The tints are harmless and can be removed by using a stainless steel cleanser, such as RoyalShine™ by Royal Prestige®. Apply the cleanser onto the dry cookware and with a moistened paper towel, rub in a circular motion. Once the stain is removed, wash pan in warm, soapy water and dry.
Clean cookware well after each use once it has cooled completely. Use warm water with a mild dish soap and a sponge or dishcloth to remove all food residue. Cookware can discolor or stain if it is not properly cleaned before cooking again. The cookware is dishwasher safe.
Your cookware features bolt-on handles, which allows the cookware to have a smooth interior with no rivet heads or weld marks. Over time, the handles may loosen but can easily be tightened (tool requirement: 14mm socket wrench). If the handle is damaged, do not use it and contact the customer service department for a replacement.
Yes! Before using your new cookware for the first time, be sure to wash it thoroughly. Add 1/4 cup of vinegar to warm soapy water, and with a sponge or dishcloth wash each piece. This will remove any residual manufacturing oils or polishing compounds that may still remain on the cookware. Cookware can discolor or stain if it is not washed properly before using it for the first time.
Yes! Choose a pan size that is appropriate for the amount of food you are preparing; ideally, you should fill the pan 2/3 full. Always use the cover that is intended for the specific pan you are using.
A low to medium temperature is best. A high temperature may be used when necessary, such as when boiling liquids. Always use a burner that is similar in diameter to the pan you are using. If cooking on a gas stove, do not allow the flame to extend up the sides of the pan.
No! Storing food in surgical stainless steel cookware for long periods of time may cause staining or pitting due to the salts, fats, seasonings, and acids in the food. Storing food could be considered improper use and void the warranty.
