Caring for Your All Clad Cookware 

Care and Cleaning

Before using it for the first time, wash in hot, soapy water with sponge or dishcloth. Rinse in hot water and dry thoroughly.

Preheating

Most recipes recommend placing our pots on low heat for about one minute before adding foods.

Frying Without Natural Fats

Add oil, butter, or margarine to the cold pot; just enough to cover the bottom surface. Preheat over low heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Add food for frying.

If sticking persists, check the following:

·  Is your stove level?

·  Is your pot clean?

·  Is your heat set too high?

·  Low to medium heat setting is recommended for optimal cooking performance

Salt Damage

To avoid small, white dots or pits from forming, bring liquids to a boil before adding salt, then stir well. You may choose to add salt after food has started to cook. Pitting does not interfere with cooking performance but can diminish the beauty of the stainless steel.

Prevent Water Spotting

After washing, rinse in hot water and dry immediately

Discoloration

Overheating can cause brown or blue stains. Food films if not removed will cause discoloration on the pot when it is reheated. Large amounts of iron content in your water may cause your pot to look rusty.

Cleaning the Stainless Interior

Immerse in warm water. Use a fine powder cleanser with water to form a paste. Apply paste using a soft clot. Rub in a circular motion from the center outward. Wash in hot, soapy water and dry immediately. DO NOT USE oven cleaners or cleansers with chlorine bleach. DO NOT USE steel wool. Bon Ami or Bar Keepers Friend cleansers work well on both the interior and exterior of ALL Clad LTD cookware.

Cleaning the Stainless Exterior

The polished stainless steel exterior of All-Clad Stainless requires very little care. It may be polished with one of the available commercial stainless steel cleaners, rubbing in a circular motion. Rinse in lukewarm water. We do not recommend using steel wool, steel scouring pads or harsh detergents. It’s best to use a soft cloth or sponge on the exterior. You may put Stainless cookware in the dishwasher.
