FAQ
Q
Which cookware materials are suitable for different cooking methods?
A
Stainless steel cookware is suitable for frying, sautéing, and boiling. Aluminum cookware heats quickly and is ideal for fast cooking. Cast iron cookware retains heat well and is suitable for slow cooking and searing. Non-stick cookware is suitable for low-oil cooking.
Q
Can cookware be cleaned in a dishwasher?
A
Some stainless steel and heat-resistant cookware can be cleaned in a dishwasher. However, non-stick cookware, wooden handles, or items with silicone parts are recommended to be hand-washed to extend their service life.
Q
What should be done before using new cookware for the first time?
A
It is recommended to wash new cookware with warm water and mild detergent, then dry it thoroughly before use. Some cast iron or iron cookware may require seasoning or basic anti-rust treatment.
Q
Can non-stick cookware still be used if the coating peels off?
A
If the coating shows noticeable peeling or deep scratches, it is recommended to stop using the cookware and replace it to maintain proper cooking performance.
Q
How can cookware deformation during heating be avoided?
A
Avoid heating an empty pan over high heat for an extended time. Using cookware that matches the size of the heat source helps maintain structural stability.
Q
Is it normal for cookware to discolor or turn yellow?
A
Stainless steel cookware may discolor after high-temperature cooking or long-term use. This is normal and can be removed with suitable cookware cleaners or gentle cleaning methods.
Q
What should be done if cookware handles become loose or hot?
A
Check and tighten any loose screws if applicable. If handles become hot during use, reduce the heat or use heat-resistant gloves when handling.
Q
Is cookware compatible with induction cooktops?
A
Compatibility depends on whether the cookware base is magnetic. Stainless steel with a magnetic base and cast iron cookware are generally suitable for induction cooktops, while standard aluminum cookware is not.
Q
How can the service life of kitchen cookware be extended?
A
Use appropriate heat levels, avoid metal utensils that may scratch surfaces, do not use highly corrosive cleaning agents, and ensure cookware is thoroughly dried after cleaning.
Q
How should cookware be stored when not in use for a long period?
A
Clean and dry cookware thoroughly before storage. Store in a dry environment. Applying a light layer of cooking oil to metal surfaces can help reduce oxidation and rust.
