GETTING THE MOST FROM YOUR SKILLET
A few guidelines to give great cooking results and prolong the life of your skillet:
• It is not necessary to use high heat when browning or frying foods. The heat
distribution is so efficient medium heat is sufficient.
• Use only wood, plastic or nylon utensils that are suitable for hot surfaces.
Do not use metal utensils.
• Do not use aerosol nonstick cooking spray on the cooking surface of the skillet.
• Use olive oil or butter, if desired. Neither is necessary; the foods will cook on
the nonstick surface without sticking.
• Do not cut foods in the skillet; it will damage the nonstick surface.
• Allow pan to return to room temperature before cleaning.
• When storing the skillet, line the cooking surface with paper towels to preserve
the nonstick finish.
