How do I clean and maintain stainless steel pans properly?

To clean stainless steel pans properly, use warm soapy water and a soft sponge. For stubborn marks, a dash of baking soda does wonders. Avoid harsh scourers or bleach, as they can dull the finish. If you spot a rainbow tint, it’s just heat discolouration - easily sorted with vinegar. Though dishwasher-safe, hand-washing keeps them gleaming for longer. A little care goes a long way.

Can Samuel Groves cookware be used on induction hobs?

Yes, all Samuel Groves cookware is compatible with induction hobs. Thanks to thick, conductive bases made from cast iron and layered stainless steel, they heat quickly without hotspots. That means efficient, even cooking whether you're on gas, electric, ceramic or induction. A proper all-rounder, really.

Do I need to season my Samuel Groves cast iron cookware?

Yes, Samuel Groves cast iron cookware needs regular seasoning to keep up its natural non-stick surface. Every piece comes pre-seasoned, but cooking with oil and giving it the odd oven bake helps build up protection over time. Always dry thoroughly after washing, and rub in a bit of oil to ward off rust. Need a step-by-step? Here’s our guide to seasoning your cast iron skillet.

What makes Samuel Groves pans safer than non-stick alternatives?

How should I care for enamelled or hard anodised cookware finishes?

To care for enamelled or hard anodised finishes, hand-wash with warm soapy water and a soft sponge. Skip the metal utensils, and don’t overheat empty pans - they like a gentler touch. Plunging a hot pan into cold water can cause cracking, so best wait a mo. Treated kindly, these tough finishes will hold their own beautifully for years.

What’s the best way to cook with stainless steel without sticking?

The best way to cook with stainless steel without sticking is to preheat the pan, add oil, then let it heat before adding food. This helps create a slick surface naturally - no coating needed. For trickier bits like eggs or fish, don’t force the flip; they’ll release when they’re ready. Stick to medium heat for more control and less burning. Bit of patience, cracking results.
