Chef's Secrets: Practical Guide to Use and Maintenance
Buying a professional pot is the first step. The second is to learn how to use it and take care of it to guarantee stellar performance for a lifetime. Here are some key tips.
- Using a fire that is too high: Professional cookware is so efficient that you will rarely need the maximum power of your stove. Learn to use medium or medium-low heat for most cooking.
- Thermal Shock: Never place a hot pot under cold water. This can cause deformation of the bottom, especially in lighter pans.
- Metal Tools on Non-stick: Even on the most resistant coatings, it is a practice to avoid. Always prefer silicone, wood or nylon.
- Overcrowd the Pan: Cooking too many ingredients all together dramatically lowers the temperature of the cooking surface. The food, instead of browning, is boiled. Always cook in small quantities for crisp, golden results.
