ProCook Gourmet Steel Stockpot & Lid

Getting the most from your Gourmet Stainless Steel Cookware

Step 1: Wash the cookware thoroughly

Wash before first use.

Each piece in the range is dishwasher safe so cleaning is easy, or alternatively wash in hot soapy water with a soft brush or nylon pad

Step 2: Cooking with Gourmet Stainless Steel

The Gourmet Stainless Steel frying, wok and sauté pans feature 5 star ProCook Ultra Plus triple layer PFOA free non-stick coating for amazing stick free cooking. Do not use metal utensils on the non-stick surface as this can damage the coating. We advise using nylon, silicone or wooden utensils for best results.

Do not expose to oven temperatures greater than 260C

Extra special care should be taken on both induction and ceramic hobs not to move pans around once placed on the hob to prevent possible scratching. Scratched hobs are not covered by your ProCook guarantee.

Some tips for cooking on induction hobs

Induction hobs can deliver extremely high heat outputs, often at double or triple times that of a typical gas hob. Therefore, extra care must be taken to reduce the heat setting as excessive heat will damage the pan and this may not be covered by your guarantee.

Only use high heat or boost settings for boiling large quantities of water (e.g. for pasta).

Reduce the heat setting as soon as the desired temperature has been achieved.

Do not use the boost setting to heat oil or fat.

Never heat an empty pan - the high output from an induction hob may damage the pan which is not covered by the guarantee.

Step 3: Cleaning those difficult bits

If there are any burnt-on-bits on pans, soak the pan in hot soapy water to loosen then wash as normal

Do not use steel wool or metal pads as they will scratch the surface of the cookware. Although they will not damage how the pan functions, they may affect the general aesthetic of the cookware.

By following these guidelines your cookware will last for many years of happy use and will keep your guarantee intact.
