Troubleshooting

Food sticking to the bottom

Ensure you are using sufficient cooking fat or liquid and not overheating the pot. Try using medium-low heat and stir frequently. For stuck-on food, soak with warm water and baking soda.

Uneven cooking

While the pot is designed for even heating, ensure your stovetop burner is centered under the pot and is the appropriate size for the base.

Discoloration

Discoloration can occur from mineral deposits or overheating. Try cleaning with a stainless steel cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water. Avoid excessive high heat.

Pot wobbles on the cooktop

Ensure the cooktop surface is level and the pot is sitting flat. Check if the bottom of the pot has any debris or damage.

  • Large capacity is perfect for significant cooking tasks.
  • Suitable for all common stovetop heat sources, including induction.
  • Professional-grade materials and build quality.

Cons

  • Lid is sold separately, adding to the overall cost.
  • Large size may be cumbersome for small kitchens or infrequent use.

Care Instructions:

  1. Before First Use: Wash the pot thoroughly with warm, soapy water and dry completely.
  2. Cooking: Use medium to low heat for most cooking. High heat is generally not necessary due to the efficient heat distribution.
  3. Cleaning: Handwashing with a soft sponge and mild detergent is recommended to maintain the finish. Avoid abrasive cleaners or steel wool, which can scratch the surface.
  4. Stubborn Food Residue: For burnt-on food, fill the pot with warm water and a tablespoon of baking soda. Let it soak for a few hours or overnight. Gently scrub with a non-abrasive sponge.
  5. Dishwasher Use: While often dishwasher safe, frequent use of a dishwasher may dull the finish over time. Handwashing is preferred for longevity.
