How to Enhance Stick-Resistance on Aureon Pro Collection Cookware

Nicmium™ Formula Multi-Ply 18/10 Stainless Steel possess some natural non-stick qualities without a non-stick layer, but seasoning the casserole properly will enhance its ability to prevent food stickage:

• Tip 1: Preheat Before Cooking:

Sprinkle a few drops of water on the casserole. Once the water drops bead and glide like mercury, the casserole is hot and ready to use

• Tip 2: Add Oil After Preheating:

Wipe the casserole dry once the pan is hot and add oil. Swirl the oil to coat the surface evenly before adding any ingredients - this helps prevent sticking

• Tip 3: Adjusting Heat after adding Food:

Stainless steel retains heat well. Reduce to medium or low heat once food is added to avoid burning

Use and Care

Before Use

Wash in warm soapy water before use. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Examine your cookware regularly, including the knobs and handles to prevent them working loose

During Use

• Select heating ring to correspond with the size of the base
• Adjust gas flames to suit the size of the base. Do not allow gas flames to extend up the sides of the cookware
• Do not use excessive heat which may cause food to stick and damage the handles. Excessive heat may cause tinting of the exterior surface
• Always preheat the cookware at a moderate heat, if higher setting is necessary
• Always use wooden, silicone or nylon utensils. Stainless steel utensils can be used but it will cause surface scratches
• Do not plunge hot cookware into cold water, or cold cookware into hot hob. Allow cookware to cool naturally
• Never add salt to the cookware whilst the liquid is cold. This also applies to baked salt in the cookware as this may cause white marks or pitting

Warnings

• AVOID BAKING SALT IN COOKWARE: Baking salt for long periods of time can cause pitting on the cookware to occur
• AVOID STRIKING COOKWARE WITH SHARP OBJECTS: Avoid hitting the cookware with the sharp ends of a stainless steel spatula. This may cause dents and small pin holes on the surface
• USE LOW TO MEDIUM HEAT: Due to the high heat retention, once the cookware is heated, medium or low heat is sufficient to perform regular cooking, saving energy, gas and money
• CLEANING BURNT AND STUBBORN FOOD REMAINS ON THE COOKWARE: Insert water within the cookware to be heated. The food or stains will loosen and can be cleaned with a brush. If stubborn stains persists, use a sparing amount of stainless steel cleaner to cautiously clean the cookware

Safety Instruction

• Never leave your cookware unattended or on a hot burner as this will result in damage to the base
• If the cookware overheats, turn the heat off and allow it to cool, before removing from the hob
• Do not place your cookware in the oven, a microwave or under a grill after use.
