Návod k obsluze

Stovetop Grilling

1. Place the grill on a stovetop burner over medium heat. Allow it to preheat for 5-10 minutes until hot. A few drops of water should evaporate immediately upon contact.
2. Lightly brush the food with oil, rather than oiling the grill surface directly, to prevent oil from pooling in the grooves and smoking.
3. Place food on the hot grill. For distinct sear marks, avoid moving the food for the first few minutes.
4. Cook food to desired doneness, turning once to create crosshatch marks if desired.
5. Use appropriate utensils (wood, silicone, or heat-resistant plastic) to avoid scratching the enamel surface.

Použití trouby

The grill is oven-safe up to 500°F (260°C). This allows for finishing dishes in the oven after searing on the stovetop, or for keeping food warm.

2. Wash with warm, soapy water. For stubborn food residues, fill the grill with warm water and let it soak for 15-20 minutes before washing.
3. Use a soft brush or non-abrasive scrubber to clean the surface. Avoid metal pads or harsh abrasive cleaners, which can damage the enamel.
4. Před uložením důkladně opláchněte a osušte.
