Every home has at least one frying pan. It can be made of different materials such as stainless steel, aluminum or cast iron, and can also be coated with Teflon. Plastic ensures that food does not brown quickly, so such pans are very popular. But this also makes them more delicate than uncoated versions.
Regardless of the type of pan you have, you should always follow the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure you can use the pan for as long as possible. If you want to handle it carefully, you should pay special attention to the following points.
1. Do not use metal cutlery in pans
Spatulas or metal cutlery should not come into contact with coated pans. Otherwise, you may scratch the material and cause small parts to come loose. To avoid possible health risks, you should no longer use faulty frying pans.
2. Do not heat empty Teflon pans
To prevent fumes that may form in Teflon-coated empty pans after approximately three minutes, you should never place them empty on hot stoves. Induction plates reach very high temperatures particularly quickly, which can cause the cookware to overheat and damage the non-stick coating. However, Teflon fumes only become dangerous to humans when the temperature of the pan reaches 360 degrees. If you provide a lower smoke point (even in refined oils this is not more than 200 degrees) you do not need to worry.
3. Do not put in the dishwasher
Although some pans can be cleaned in the dishwasher, you should avoid this if possible. The material will be softer if you hand wash it with a mild detergent. You should be careful that there is no cleaning agent residue left on the pot. It is therefore particularly important to rinse thoroughly with water.
4. Carefully remove burnt items
Burnt residue should not be easily scraped off with a coarse sponge or brush. Especially steel sponges cause scratches quickly and should not be used. Gentle cleaning involves adding a little water and a few drops of dish soap to the pan and heating it gently on the stove. If you then let everything cool down a bit, the dirt can be easily removed. Then rinse the frying pan with cold, clean water. This means that the cookware will remain in good condition for a long time.
