FAQs

Can I use metal utensils?

While the matte black interior is scratch-resistant, using wooden or silicone utensils is recommended to prolong the life of the dish.

Is the dish dishwasher safe?

No, the Staub Cast Iron Oven Dish is not dishwasher safe. Hand washing is recommended to preserve the finish.

Can I use the dish on a gas stove?

Yes, it is suitable for use on gas stoves. Distribute the heat evenly.

What kind of oil should I use for seasoning?

Use an oil with a high smoke point, such as vegetable oil, canola oil, or grapeseed oil, for seasoning.

How do I remove stubborn food residue?

Soak the dish in warm, soapy water for a while. Then, use a non-abrasive sponge or brush to gently scrub away the residue. For tougher stains, make a paste of baking soda and water.

What is the warranty?

The product has a lifetime warranty for domestic use against defects in manufacture and materials.

Can I store food in the dish?

It is not recommended to store food in the cast iron dish for extended periods, especially acidic foods, as it may affect the seasoning. Always dry the dish completely before storing.

Troubleshooting

Food is sticking to the surface.

Ensure the dish is properly seasoned. If necessary, re-season the dish according to the manufacturer's instructions. Avoid cooking acidic foods until a good seasoning has developed.

Rust spots appear.

Dry the dish thoroughly after each use. If rust appears, scrub the affected area with steel wool, re-season the dish, and dry it thoroughly.

Uneven heating.

Ensure the dish is in full contact with the heat source. For induction cooktops, make sure the dish is centered.
