FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Below you will find the most frequently asked questions and solutions:
- On which heat sources can I use the pans?
o Our pans are suitable for use on all heat sources. Gas, electric, halogen, induction, glass ceramic (CERAN®). However, the pans are not suitable for use in the microwave.
- Are the pans dishwasher safe?
o Yes, the pans are dishwasher safe. However, we recommend washing the pans by hand to ensure a long service life. Rinse the cooled product with warm water and mild detergent, using a melamine sponge if necessary. Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or sharp or hard objects.
- Do the pans contain PFAS?
o No, the current Kuhn Rikon Fresh line does not contain PFAS. We use an ILAG Xeradur 3 PFAS-free coating. This is a ceramic non-stick coating and is completely PFAS-free.
- My pan has discolored. How is this possible and is it harmful?
o De o The discoloration is also known as heat tint or “rainbow stains.” This is a common discoloration of stainless steel caused by overheating the cookware before adding water or anything else to it. Overheating or boiling dry cookware can cause (golden) yellow, brown, dark purple, blue, or various rainbow hues on the stainless steel surface. Although the discolorations are completely harmless, these shades can spoil the appearance of the pan. However, this is only caused by a natural reaction of the steel elements to air (oxygen) and high temperatures.
o To remove these stains from your stainless steel cookware, bring ⅓ vinegar and ⅔ water to a boil, let it boil for 5 minutes, let it cool, and then rinse it in the sink. For more stubborn stains or stains on the outside, use a stainless steel cleaner and a damp cloth. Never use a steel wool sponge, as this will cause scratches on the pan that cannot be removed.
- There is a build-up on the non-stick coating of my frying pan or wok. How is this possible?
o The build-up that remains on the non-stick coating is also known as carbonization and is the result of prolonged exposure to heat when cooking with oil or butter. This happens especially when cooking on gas, where the flame extends beyond the diameter of the bottom. This excessive heat can cause oil and fat to carbonize on the non-stick coating and remain as residue. Therefore, make sure that the flame never extends beyond the diameter of the bottom and preferably avoid cooking with oil sprays, as this type of fat quickly overheats.
o These stubborn stains can be removed with a thorough cleaning. Fill the pan halfway with water and a little dish soap. Let the liquid simmer gently. The boiling process makes it easier to remove burnt residue. Use a melamine sponge if necessary.
- White spots/dots appear on the bottom of my pan.
o The chalky white spots on the bottom of the pans are most likely the result of calcium buildup in the water or were caused by adding salt to the water before it boiled. In most cases, the white spots come from calcium in the tap water. When salt is added to water before it boils, the salt sinks to the bottom instead of dissolving in the water, causing stains.
o If the mineral deposits are “baked on,” a normal dishwasher cycle will usually not be enough to remove them. These stains can be removed by boiling a solution of ⅓ vinegar and ⅔ water. Allow to cool completely, then wash and dry the pan as usual. Do not use a steel wool sponge, as this will cause scratches on the pan that cannot be removed.
