Caring for your All-Clad Master-Chef Cookware
Basic Care and Cleaning:
Before you use your All-Clad Master-Chef for the first time, wash it thoroughly in hot soapy water with a sponge or dishcloth. Rinse it in hot water and dry thoroughly to prevent spotting.
Preheating:
Most recipes recommend placing All-Clad Master-Chef on a low heat setting for about one minute before adding your ingredients.
Salt Damage:
To avoid small white dots or pits from forming on the stainless steel cooking surface of your Master-Chef ware, bring liquids to a boil before adding salt, and then stir the ingredients well. You may choose to add salt after your food has started to cook. Pitting does not interfere with cooking performance but can diminish the beauty of your stainless steel surface.
Preventing Water Spotting:
This is easy, just remember to rinse in hot water and dry with a soft dishcloth immediately.
Discoloration:
Overheating can cause brown or blue stains. Food films if not removed will cause discoloration on your All-Clad when it is reheated. Large amounts of iron content may cause your pot to take on a rusty look.
Cleaning the Stainless Interior of Your Master-Chef:
Immerse your cookware in warm water. Use a fine powder cleanser such as "Bar Keepers Friend" "Wenol", "Twinkle", "Cameo" or "Bon Ami" and form into a paste. Apply the paste using a soft cloth. Rub the paste in a circular motion spiraling from the center outward. Wash again in hot soapy water, and dry immediately. DO NOT USE OVEN CLEANERS OR CLEANSERS WITH CHLORINE BLEACH. DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL. Nylon scrubbing pads are safe to use. Bar Keepers Friend or Bon Ami cleansers work well on both the interior and exterior of All-Clad Stainless Cookware.
Cleaning your All-Clad Master-Chef Exterior:
The brushed aluminum alloy exterior is exceptionally durable and requires very little care. It is scratch and stain resistant. Use warm water and mild soap because harsh detergents will lighten the dark anodized surface. Use nylon pads rather then steel wool or scouring pads. DO NOT WASH YOUR MASTER CHEF IN THE DISHWASHER. Important Notes:
1. DO NOT USE OVEN CLEANERS OR CLEANSERS WITH CHLORINE BLEACH.
2. DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL.
3. DO NOT OVERHEAT YOUR COOKWARE.
