Use & Care
CLEANING |
Cleaning WOLL Professional Cast Products: Nothing could be easier! Thanks to the high quality non-stick coating you only need hot water and a little detergent after every use, and everything will be sparkling clean as quick as a flash. But all WOLL professional cast products are also dishwasher-proof. Our recommendation for cleaning method is to drizzle dishwashing liquid directly on to pan surface and then use a dish brush to create a lather of soap as you fully clean the surface. Cleaning in this manner is important to make sure you remove any natural fats or oil buildup from food. If not cleaned correctly it can cause discolouration and over time a burnt layer can build up which can harm the performance of the non stick surface. |
OILS & FATS |
For healthy enjoyment: Choose the right fats, because they don’t all like heat! Depending on what you are cooking, choose an oil or fat which will withstand the desired cooking temperature. Fats and oils have different levels of stability when heated; we also talk about the smoke point, in other words the temperature at which the fat starts to burn, which becomes apparent as smoke develops. When cooking at high temperatures, for example for searing meat or when preparing vegetables in a wok, then cooking fats and oils with a high smoke point are especially recommended:

UTENSILS |
Practical utensils: Anything is possible! Due to the highly resistant WOLL coating you can use all your kitchen utensils without any problems, whether they are made of wood, plastic or even metal. Or why not use our practical WOLL silicone utensils – they are highly heat-resistant, very easy to clean, hygienic and also further extend the life of our products. |
COATING |
Cutting or scratch marks: No problem! WOLL professional cast products are robust and hardwearing. The patented hard-base coating makes the frying surface extremely resistant to cutting and abrasion. If small scratch marks should appear on the surface, the product can still be used without any concerns – and without affecting its cooking and frying properties or your health. WOLL professional cast products are PFOA-free. |
INDUCTION |
Cooking with induction: Energy-saving – cleaner – faster! WOLL professional cast products are just right for cooking with induction too.When you cook with WOLL induction cookware, a strong magnetic field is created directly in the induction base which covers the entire area of the pan. So the heat is produced exactly where it is needed and is evenly distributed. Which means: You save energy and can heat up your food even faster and more accurately. Dirt on the hob around the WOLL professional cast products can easily be removed as this area remains almost cold. But watch out: Induction hobs are often equipped with magnetic field sensors around the edge, which detect whether the pots and pans are suitable for induction. The diameter of the cooking area should therefore correspond to the size of the base of your cookware. Otherwise this will not be recognized as suitable for induction cooking. To avoid damaging your induction hob, always lift WOLL professional cast products when moving them. |
CERAMIC HOBBS |
Cooking on Ceran hobs: Up with the pans! When moving WOLL professional cast products around on ceramic hobs, small particles of dirt in between the aluminium base and the hob can scratch the base of the pan and the ceramic hob. Unfortunately we are unable to accept any liability for these. You should therefore always lift WOLL professional cast products when moving them. |
HEATING |
The right temperature when frying: WOLL professional cast products get hot particularly quickly! When empty, WOLL professional cast products reach a temperature of up to 300° C (570°F) in just three minutes when you use the highest heat setting. Reduce the heat in good time so as to obtain healthy and tasty cooking results. If the temperature is too high, cooking oils and fats can burn very quickly and also leave so-called tar resins on the surface of the pan, which under some circumstances can not be removed and will damage the non-stick properties. This is how you heat up your WOLL professional cast product correctly when frying with fat or oil or when baking:

ENERGY
|
Tempting low-energy treats quickly: Cooking with quality makes sense! In a WOLL professional cast product the heat is distributed and stored particularly well – which means you can keep the temperature turned down and make great energy savings while cooking. For example, you will use 1/3 less energy than when using traditional cast iron pans.

SAFETY |
When deep-frying: Use a high sided pot or roasting tin. Moulded handle: Fixed handles, side handles and lid knobs are oven-resistant up to 250°C (Logic series: fixed handles and lid knobs up to 220°C) and become hot in the oven. Use oven gloves. Removable handles: The removable handles on WOLL professional cast products are not ovenproof. Should you wish to use your WOLL professional cast product in the oven the detachable handle should be removed first. |
