Your Lodge Enamel Cast
Iron can be used for almost any cooking technique, gas,
electric, ceramic, induction and in the oven. It is not
recommended for use on outdoor grills or over open outdoor
flames.
Do not use in Microwave Oven
On the stovetop, use a burner nearest in size to the
diameter of the pan bottom. This will allow the heat to
spread evenly across the pan and avoid hot spots. Use of a
large pan on a small burner may cause warping and will over
heat side walls and handles.
The interior cooking surfaces of the Lodge Enamel Skillet
and Roaster are black matte enamel. Apply vegetable oil or
cooking spray to the surface for better cooking and easier
clean up.
The interior cooking surface of the Lodge Enamel Dutch Ovens
and Casseroles is coated with cream colored gloss enamel. If
using on a ceramic or glass cook top, always lift the
cookware to move, never
slide across the surface.
Never heat an empty
pan Select low to medium heat when cooking on stove top.
Use wooden or silicone utensils. Metallic culinary utensils
scratch enamel cookware.
Always use a cloth or oven mitt to move cookware from stove
top or oven. Do not
place the cookware on unprotected counter tops or tables,
place on a trivet, cloth or board.
The lid's knob/handle may become loose. Check periodically
and tighten as needed. Do not over tighten.
(Replacement knobs/handles are available).
For best
performance, do not
exceed 400 degrees F.
The phenolic knob is oven safe only to 400 degrees F.
The enamel finish is durable,
but can chip if banged, dropped or if improper cooking
techniques are used. |
