Setup

Before First Use

Before using your new lasagna and roasting pans for the first time, wash them thoroughly with warm, soapy water. Rinse completely and dry immediately to prevent water spots. This ensures cleanliness and prepares the surface for cooking.

Assembly

The chrome racks are designed to fit inside the pans. Simply place the rack into the pan before adding food for roasting. The racks elevate food, allowing for better air circulation and even cooking.

Operating Instructions

Oven Use

These pans are suitable for use in conventional ovens. Always ensure the pan fits comfortably within your oven, allowing for adequate air circulation. The stainless steel construction can withstand high oven temperatures.

Using the Handles

The foldable stainless steel handles are designed for safe transport. When moving the hot pans, always use oven mitts or heat-resistant gloves to protect your hands. Ensure the handles are fully extended and securely gripped before lifting.

Maintenance

Cleaning

The pans are dishwasher safe. However, to maintain their mirror-polished finish and prevent potential discoloration or water spots, hand washing with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth is recommended. For stubborn food residue, soak the pan in warm, soapy water before scrubbing. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or steel wool, which can scratch the surface.

Storage

Ensure pans and racks are completely dry before storing to prevent water spots or potential rust. Store them in a dry place where they are protected from scratches.

Troubleshooting

Food Sticking

To minimize food sticking, lightly grease the pan surface before adding ingredients. For roasting, the use of the chrome rack helps prevent food from sitting directly on the pan bottom.

Discoloration

While stainless steel is durable, exposure to certain detergents or high heat in dishwashers can sometimes cause slight discoloration or spotting. This is typically cosmetic and does not affect the pan's performance. Hand washing is the best method to preserve the original finish.

Sharp Edges

Some users have noted that the edges of the pans can feel sharp. Exercise caution when handling. If desired, the edges can be gently smoothed with a fine-grit file or buffer.
