FAQs

Is the Prestige Cast Iron Double Griddle truly non-stick out of the box?

Yes, it comes pre-seasoned, offering a naturally non-stick surface from the start. For best results and to maintain this property, proper care and occasional re-seasoning are recommended.

Can I use metal utensils with this griddle?

While the pre-seasoned surface is durable, it is best to use wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils to avoid scratching the seasoning layer and prolong its non-stick effectiveness.

How do I maintain the seasoning on my cast iron griddle?

After cleaning and drying thoroughly, apply a very thin layer of cooking oil to the entire surface and heat gently on the hob for a few minutes. Wipe off excess oil. This should be done periodically, especially if you notice reduced non-stick performance.

Is it safe to put this griddle in the dishwasher?

No, cast iron cookware should never be put in a dishwasher, as the harsh detergents and prolonged wet cycle can strip the seasoning and cause rust.

What is the best way to store the griddle?

Ensure the griddle is completely dry and lightly oiled. Store it in a dry place. To prevent moisture buildup, you can place a paper towel between the griddle and any cover.

Can this griddle be used on an induction cooktop?

Yes, the Prestige Cast Iron Double Griddle is fully compatible with induction cooktops, as well as gas, electric, and ceramic stovetops.

What is the maximum temperature the griddle can withstand in the oven?

The griddle is oven safe up to 240°C (464°F).

Troubleshooting

Food sticking to the surface

Ensure the griddle is adequately preheated before adding food. Make sure the cooking surface is properly seasoned and has been oiled lightly before cooking. Clean and re-season if the non-stick properties have diminished.

Rust spots appearing on the griddle

This usually occurs if the griddle was not dried completely or was exposed to moisture. Scrub away the rust spots with steel wool. Wash, dry thoroughly, and re-season the entire surface immediately.

Uneven cooking temperatures

Ensure the griddle is placed evenly on the heat source. Allow sufficient time for the cast iron to fully preheat, as it takes longer to heat up but retains heat well once hot. Check that your hob is providing consistent heat.

Griddle is difficult to clean

Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive scouring pads. Use hot water and a stiff brush or plastic scraper. For stubborn residue, simmer a small amount of water on the griddle for a few minutes to loosen food, then scrape and clean.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Prestige Cast Iron Double Griddle comes pre-seasoned and ready for use. Before the first use, it's recommended to wash it with warm water and mild soap, then dry it thoroughly. Apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the entire surface and heat it gently on the hob for a few minutes, then wipe clean.

Compatibility: This griddle is compatible with all hob types, including induction, gas, electric, and ceramic. It is also oven safe up to 240°C.

Care: To maintain the non-stick properties and prevent rust:

  1. Cleaning: After each use, wash the griddle with hot water. Use a stiff brush or scraper for stuck-on food, avoiding abrasive pads or harsh detergents. If soap is necessary, use only a small amount of mild dish soap.
  2. Drying: Always dry the griddle thoroughly immediately after washing. Placing it on a warm hob for a few minutes can help ensure it's completely dry.
  3. Seasoning: After drying, apply a very thin layer of cooking oil (like vegetable or canola oil) to the entire surface. Wipe off any excess oil. Store in a dry place.
