La gourmet Nitrigan Cast Iron Cookware

Cast Iron especially light cast iron is making a comeback in cookware as it is viewed as one of the safest and healthiest cookware. Rust has always been the main complaint but with La gourmet’s innovation and modern technology this has been overcome

What Is Nitrigan?

It is a special process which changes the surface of the cast iron to create a hardened surface. The structure and DNA of the material is altered resulting in material that is HIGHLY RESISTANT TO RUST and INCREDIBLY STRONG AND DURABLE.

No chemicals are added which makes the special nitrigan treatment on cast iron a healthy alternative to PTFE coating cookware.

Release Capabilities

With consistent use and proper use and care, the La gourmet Nitrigan Deep Frypan will develop more release capabilities as a natural patina is created with constant use and proper conditioning. This makes it a healthy and safe cookware which complies to the Green Ecology of today.

Note: With continuous seasoning with oil dan use , the oil has broken down into a substance that has bonded to the surface of the metal. This is what gives it stick resistant properties.

This is what gives the well seasoned cast iron the natural patina and more release capabilities .

Please ensure to always dry thoroughly the nitrigan wok as water and not following the Use & Care Instruction and Seasoning. Instruction may cause rust spots to occur ( See leaflet inside )

Use and Care

Before Use

• Please follow these instructions to prolong the product life and to maintain the optimal performance of your La gourmet Nitriding Wok.
• Conditioning the pan with oil before it is used for the first time is very important.
• First wash your pan’s inner and outer surface with some dish washing liquid. Rinse and dry it.
• After drying the pan, please follow the oil conditioning procedure.

Initial Oil Conditioning

1. Fill the pan with one cup of oil.
2. Heat the pan for approximately 5 minutes using low heat or until the pan is smoking hot.
3. Coat the entire interior cookware by tilting the pan and turn the oil around.
4. Turn off the heat and remove the oil from the pan. The oil can be kept in an oil pot for repeated seasoning. CAUTION: Pan is very hot
5. Using a soft towel, spread and work the remaining oil residue evenly into the pan surface.
6. Initial oil conditioning is completed and the pan is ready to be used.

CAUTION: PLEASE BE CAREFULL WHEN HANDLING AND USING HEATED OIL.

Before every use

• Routine oil conditioning must always be performed before each use.
• Performing oil conditioning before each use prevents food from sticking and makes cooking and cleaning much easier.
• This is something that most professional cooks know and do. With proper conditioning, the cookware will form a natural patina and will resist food from sticking, making cooking and cleaning easier.

Routine oil conditioning

1. Heat up your pan using medium heat.
2. Add about ½ cup of oil to the pan (you can reuse the oil from the first conditioning).
3. Tilt the pan and turn the oil around to coat the entire interior surface.
4. After the oil is heated and the pan is evenly coated and conditioned, return the oil to its oil pot.
5. The pan is ready for cooking. Please add fresh oil for your usual cooking. *Oil conditioning prevents food from sticking while creating a coating which allows heat to be distributed more evenly on the pan surface.

After use

1. Use a scrub brush while the cookware is still hot and wash the pan with water/hot water. (Avoid using the dishwasher and dish soap as it may strip away the protective coating)
2. When done rinse it off and wipe off any moisture from both interior and exterior of the cookware.The cookware should be properly dried before storing.

Reminder

1. Make sure to perform routine oil conditioning before each use.
2. Using a detergent may strip away the protective coating acquired from oil conditioning.
3. Should the pan require deep cleaning with a detergent, apply oil evenly to the surface after cleaning.
4. Reperforming initial oil conditioning is recommended before use.
