Care tips for metal and enamel baking pans
Porcelain enamel pans cannot tolerate rapid temperature changes so cool hot pans before washing. Blue steel pans will return to market. check oven temperature and pan position when first used. Dark pans absorb heat faster than shiny. adjust bake time to avoid overbrowning. Aluminum pans require mild soap wash. rinse quickly to prevent pitting and avoid boiling with soda or alkali. use weak vinegar to remove stains.
