Maintenance tips
To preserve your stainless steel pan and guarantee optimal long-term performance, here are a few simple tips:
- Rinse immediately after use
Run the pan under cold water while it's still hot. This helps loosen stuck-on food thanks to the thermal shock. -
Use non-abrasive sponges
Clean with a soft sponge and a little dishwashing liquid to avoid damaging the stainless steel surface. - Soak if necessary
If residues persist, soak the pan in hot water with a pinch of baking soda before cleaning. - Restore the shine of stainless steel
For a shiny stainless steel finish, use a paste made from baking soda and water. Apply with a soft cloth, rinse, then dry. - Dishwasher safe
Although dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended to preserve the shine and durability of the pan. - Dry
After cleaning, wipe your pan with a soft cloth to avoid water or limescale stains.
Usage tips
Our stainless steel pans are designed to last a lifetime. To get the most out of them, here are a few simple tips:
Gently preheat your pan over medium heat before adding any fat or food. A good test: pour in a few drops of water; if they form a bead that slides off, the temperature is ideal.
Avoid overheating , especially when empty. Stainless steel conducts heat well, so there's no need to turn the flame up to full blast.
Use suitable utensils (wood, silicone or stainless steel), and avoid abrasive sponges to preserve the surface.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Do stainless steel pans stick?
Contrary to popular belief, stainless steel pans do not have to stick if they are used correctly.
Stainless steel allows you to sear food perfectly, but you must follow one key rule: always preheat the pan before adding fat or your ingredients.
Once the surface is hot enough, the food detaches naturally thanks to the Maillard effect, without the need for a chemical coating.
How can I tell if my stainless steel pan is at the right temperature?
It's simple: pour a few drops of water into the hot pan.
If the drops roll like marbles on the surface, your pan is ready to use.
This test allows you to cook your food without it sticking.
Is it difficult to maintain a stainless steel pan?
Not at all! SAINE stainless steel pans are easy to clean, even after intense cooking. Here are a few tips:
- If any residue sticks, deglaze the pan immediately with a little hot water.
- For stubborn stains, soak with water and baking soda or use a special stainless steel cleaner.
