Your THERMOS® non-stick frying pan is designed to make cooking effortless — and cleaning should be just as easy! To help maintain its performance and prolong its lifespan, here are a few simple care tips to keep it looking and working like new:
1. 🧽 Cool It Down First
Always allow the pan to cool before cleaning. Washing a hot pan with cold water can warp the surface or damage the non-stick coating over time.
2. 💦 Hand Wash with Mild Detergent
Use a soft sponge or cloth with warm water and a mild dish soap. Avoid abrasive scrubbers, steel wool, or harsh cleaners that could scratch or degrade the non-stick surface.
3. 🥄 Skip the Dishwasher
Hand washing is best to preserve the coating. Dishwasher detergents and high heat may shorten the non-stick life.
4. 🍳 Avoid Soaking for Too Long
While soaking helps loosen stubborn food, leaving it in water for extended periods may weaken the coating. Try to clean it soon after use for best results.
5. ✨ Use the Right Utensils
To reduce wear and tear, cook with wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils. Metal tools can scratch and damage the surface over time, affecting non-stick performance.
6. 🛠️ Bonus Tip: Tackle Stubborn Stains Gently
For stuck-on food, create a paste of baking soda and water, gently rub with a soft cloth, then rinse thoroughly.
