This beautiful Set of Heavy-Bottom Stainless-Steel Pots are perfect for every Cook and if you follow our few tips & tricks to care for your pots, they will last well into the future.

It is important to understand that Stainless Steel Pots are not non-stick. There are a few ways to prevent your food from sticking and or burning and the 1st would be to get familiar with your cooking surface

Here's a simple test: Fill your pot or pan with a few inches of water and bring to a boil on high heat. Hot spots are the places where you will see rapid bubbling.

The cold spots are the places where you will see few bubbles, or none at all. The ring of bubbles is where the flames from the gas burner contact the pan. The center of the pan is over the cap of the burner, and not in contact with any flame at all, and therefore a cold spot. Any food cooked on a hotspot without turning, stirring, or tossing will eventually burn or stick to the pan.

So, if you have a powerful stove, and a recipe calls for medium-high heat, try lowering the heat to medium and keep the food moving around to prevent it from staying in a hot or cold spot. Professional cooks shake their pans; this will move the food around in the pan, but also change the position of the pan over the heat and allow hot spots to cool and cool spots to heat.

Learning to cook on a lower heat can help prevent food from sticking, but more advanced cooks might want to season their stainless steel to create a natural non-stick coating for frying pans or saucepans.

To season a stainless-steel pan:
- Heat the pan on a moderate heat and then add a generous amount of oil
- Let the oil reach its smoking point, then turn off the burner and let the pan cool
- Once the pan is cool, pour off the oil and wipe the pan clean

The surface of the pan should now be reflective and is seasoned to be non-stick. It will stay non-stick as long as the pan isn t cleaned with soap. This is because when the pan heats, the metal expands. The oil then sticks to the surface as the pan cools and the metal contracts. A seasoned stainless-steel pan is great for cooking eggs, crepes and similar dishes

Some tips to make your pots last longer:
Although your Pots are Dishwasher safe, it's best to avoid the dishwasher when cleaning stainless steel, as the detergent may harm the finish, and cause spotting. Leaving a wet stainless-steel pot or pan in the dishwasher can also lead to water spots. To be safe, always hand wash your stainless-steel cookware with hot water, dish soap, and a soft dish towel. Immediately dry it by hand afterwards.
If you do end up with hazy, white spots on your stainless-steel cookware, it's probably a result of calcium build-up due to hard water. When this happens, fill your pan with one part vinegar and three parts water. Bring the mixture to a boil, allow it to cool, and then wash it and dry it as you normally would.
Removing Build-up or Burned on Food; use a soft sponge to scrub off what you can from the pot or pan, and then fill it with water and dish soap. Bring the soapy water to a boil, and allow it to boil for about 10 minutes. Next, remove it from the heat and allow it to cool before scrubbing it with a sponge once again.
Removing Heat Damage; If your pan has noticeable dark marks from being left on the burner too long, you can clean it using baking soda. Make sure the pan is completely dry, and sprinkle baking soda onto the surface of the pan where the heat damage is located. Use a dry cloth to rub the baking soda around the surface. Afterwards, rinse your pan thoroughly
