TIPS - Rapid changes in temperature may warp or crack enamelware, it is best to heat gradually and leave to cool at room temperature. For oven use; apply a thin layer of cooking oil or butter to the interior surface, baked on food can be soaked in hot water and washing up liquid. Food stains may be removed with lemon juice or bicarbonate of soda.

Enamelware will develop patina with use, this should be considered part of its charm. Made from pressed steel fused with a porcelain enamel coating, enamelware should be treated with the same care as a glass or ceramic item.

If dropped or knocked the enamel surface may chip, but the item won’t brake due to its steel core. Enamelware is still safe to use if chipped, the exposed steel will simply oxidise.

The thickness and colour of the enamel coating may vary and occasionally appear to be slightly uneven. The enamelling process requires the item to be hung from metal hooks, allowing it to be hand dipped into liquid enamel before being fired. This leaves one or two marks under the rim, handle or drainage hole depending on the type of product, these are unavoidable results of the process.

The underside edge of the steel may not be fully coated, always ensure enamelware is thoroughly dried after washing and before storage. These edges may cause oxidisation stains if left damp, however, they should easily wipe off if managed routinely.
