Greenpan Fish Pan 33x23cm 'Barcelona Pro'

Almost always, there is a thin layer of burnt-on grease on the non-stick coating. This is called carbonization. It is caused by too high heat, olive oil or baking spray, food residue that remains and washing too gently. The layer itself is usually still fine. Read all the tips in our blog about burnt-on food.

• Add a tablespoon of vinegar to the pan and sprinkle baking soda (soda) over it.
• Let this simmer gently for 10 minutes and then soak for a few hours.
• Then clean the pan with warm water, dishwashing liquid and a melamine sponge. Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool or the hard side of a scouring sponge.
• Then test with a splash of cold milk: if it runs off cleanly, the pan is clean.

Wash the pan after each use by hand or in the dishwasher until it shines again. Do you see a matte, dull film? Then there is still grease on it. Wash it off, using soda and vinegar if necessary.

Yes, you can. But the dishwasher significantly shortens the lifespan of the non-stick coating. Washing by hand is therefore better.

Ideally, use an oil with a high smoke point, such as sunflower oil or rapeseed oil. You can also use butter or ghee over medium heat. Do not bake with olive oil or baking spray, as they burn quickly and leave a sticky residue.

Heat the pan gently, at about 70–80% power. Medium-high heat is hot enough, even for meat. Be especially careful with induction: it heats the pan in a few seconds. Do not use the boost setting.
