Tips
Removing Stubborn Residue
When food is burned in the pan, a stubborn black residue may remain. If soaking does not loosen it, add water and a
tablespoon of non-lemon dishwasher detergent to a depth of one inch in the pan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for
15 minutes. Let cool in the pan, then drain and rinse. Loosen the residue with a sponge or plastic spatula. Repeat if necessary.
Cooking With Gas
When cooking over a gas burner, make certain the flame touches only the pan bottom. Your pan can become discolored and
it is a waste of energy if the flame comes up the sides of the pan. PLEASE NOTE: Copper Chef™ Cookware has exceptionally
high thermo-conductivity. Even a low setting on some gas burners could cause overheating and possibly burn foods such
as thinly sliced onions. You can prevent this by using an inexpensive gas “flame-tamer” placed between the burner and the
bottom of the pan. You can find inexpensive flame-tamers at most hardware stores.
Cooking Temperature In Oven
Feel free to use Copper Chef™ Cookware in the oven without damage. Please note that the handle as well as the pan will
become hot. Always use oven mitts or potholders to prevent burns. Your Copper Chef™ cookware can be used in the oven.
It can go from the burner to the oven and even to the table when placed on a heat-resistant trivet.
Storage
When storing your Copper Chef™ cookware avoid stacking and crowding it in cabinets or drawers. That could cause
scratches. We recommend a cookware rack or pegboard to provide convenient, safe storage. Always nest your non-stick pans
carefully. Never place any metal pan covers with thin, sharp edges inside your pans.
