Care & Cleaning

1Quick Dip

Hand wash your pans with warm, soapy water to remove any dirt or debris left over from the manufacturing and shipping process.

2Clean as a Whistle

Wipe dry with a soft, non-abrasive dish towel to avoid scratching. The bottom surface of your pan should be dry before touching a burner.

3Skip the Seasoning

Ceramic comes naturally non-stick, so no need to season your pan beyond a dash of oil.

4Ready for the Heat

Pre-heat for up to 90 seconds on low to medium heat only before adding oil. Avoid leaving an empty pan on a hot burner, unless over very low heat.

1Burnin’ Up

Ceramic can hold heat more efficiently than traditional pans, so use pans on low to medium heat when cooking. Overheating can wear away the non-stick coating.

2Au Natural

Your food will effortlessly glide on your ceramic pans, so less is more when it comes to oil or butter. 1-2 tablespoons is more than enough to lightly coat the entire pan surface. Allow 20-30 seconds to pre-heat before you add food.

3Ditch the Sprays

Avoid using oil sprays or cooking aerosols for greasing pans to preserve the naturally slick coating.

4No Pointy Edges

Metal utensils with rough edges may damage your non-stick coating. Stick to wooden, silicone, plastic, or nylon products. Always be sure to cut or dice food on a separate surface and not inside your pan.

5Graceful Landing

Carefully place pans on and off stovetops. Sliding across metal stovetops may damage the steel base.

1Time to Cool Down

Let your cookware cool completely before running cold water over its surface to avoid thermal shock (meaning it might crack—yikes!). Your pans can withstand extreme temperatures on both ends of the spectrum, but sudden and significant changes can reduce their lifespan.

2No Dishwasher, No Problem

Our non-stick coating makes cleaning a breeze. Save time & water with a gentle scrub to keep your pans in optimal condition.

3Squeaky Clean

Clean the cooking surface with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or dishcloth until the pan is spotless before storing. For stains on the exterior of the pan, you may use a stronger sponge (we suggest a wool sponge) with a high-strength detergent.

4Breaking Bonds

If food gets stuck onto the surface, fear not! Simmer soapy water over a low heat then gently scrape away with a sponge or non-abrasive scrubber. Rinse and repeat if needed.

1Quick Dip

Hand wash your pans with warm, soapy water to remove any dirt or debris left over from the manufacturing and shipping process.

2Clean As A Whistle

Wipe dry with a soft, non-abrasive dish towel to avoid scratching and dry spots. The bottom surface of your pan should be dry before touching a burner.

3Let's Talk Prep

Add oil or butter to your pan to create a slick surface for your food. Bring ingredients to room temperature before placing them into your heated pan (too cold food tends to stick to a warm pan!).

4Ready For The Heat

Preheat on low to medium heat before adding oil. Avoid leaving an empty pan on a hot burner.

5Discover Your Winning Recipe

For your first few uses, monitor your heat setting to gauge your stovetop & oven’s heat efficiency and adjust recipes as needed. Food should sizzle when it hits the pan as an indication of proper heating.

1Burnin' Up

Caraway's 5-ply stainless steel cookware can hold heat more efficiently than traditional pans, so use yours on low to medium heat when cooking. Overheating can cause food to stick to the pan!

2Au Natural

Add oil or butter into your pan to lightly coat the entire surface. Allow time to pre-heat before you add food.

3Ditch The Sprays

Avoid oil sprays or cooking aerosols. Instead, use butter or liquid based oils to best preserve your cookware.

4Salt When Hot

Wait until the food inside your pan is nice & hot before adding salt to prevent calcium deposits from forming “pit” marks on the surface of your cookware.

5No Pointy Edges

Utensils with rough edges (like metal knives, whisks, or spatulas) will damage your stainless steel pans, so stick to soft wooden, silicone, plastic, or nylon products.

6Graceful Landing

Carefully place pans on and off stovetops. Sliding across metal stovetops scratch the pan’s exterior.

1Time To Cool Down

Let your cookware cool completely before running cold water over its surface to avoid thermal shock (meaning it might crack—yikes!).

2No Dishwasher, No Problem

Save time & water with a gentle scrub to keep your pans in optimal condition. Avoid using the dishwasher as it can affect the longevity of your cookware.

3Squeaky Clean

Clean the cooking surface with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or dishcloth until the pan is spotless before storing. For tougher stains, you may use a stronger sponge with a high-strength detergent.

1QUICK DIP

Hand wash your bakeware with warm, soapy water to remove any dirt or debris left over from the manufacturing and shipping process.

2CLEAN AS A WHISTLE

Wipe dry with a soft, non-abrasive dish towel to avoid scratching. The full top and bottom surface of your bakeware should be fully dry before being put in the oven.

3SKIP THE SEASONING

Ceramic comes naturally non-stick, so no need to season your bakeware.

4READY FOR THE HEAT

Heat your oven to your desired temperature before adding in your bakeware. Avoid putting empty bakeware into the oven without any food on it.

5FRIENDLY FIRE

Your bakeware does not play well with open flames (stovetops, grills, campfires), so stick to only using in the oven.

1DISCOVER YOUR WINNING RECIPE

Our bakeware’s ceramic coating allows for even heat distribution. For your first few uses, closely monitor your heat setting to dial in on the perfect baking temperature or oven time and adjust recipes as needed.

2LINE IT UP

Our ceramic surface is designed for easy release when fully coated with flour, or a light amount of oil or butter, before food is added, per recipe instructions. For a speedy clean up, lining with parchment paper will also maintain its non-stick quality.

3DITCH THE SPRAYS

Avoid oil sprays or cooking aerosols. Instead, use butter or liquid based oils to best preserve the slick coating.

4NO POINTY EDGES

Utensils with rough edges will damage your non-stick coating, so stick to soft wooden, silicone, plastic, or nylon products. Avoid using metal entirely. Do not cut baked goods while they are in the pan.

5GRACEFUL LANDING

Sharp metal edges may damage the exterior base coating, so place carefully on and off oven grates and stovetops.

6TOO HOT TO HANDLE

When placing your bakeware in or out of the oven, use a pot holder, oven mitt, or dishtowel as the pans and handles will get hot to the touch.

7HOT & POPPIN’

It is normal for bakeware to slightly “warp” and make a popping sound in the oven due to the heat. Don’t worry—our bakeware’s reinforced rim will ensure it will flatten once cooled.

8BAKED, NEVER BROILED

Not to be used under an oven’s broil setting, beyond 550°F, or in a microwave.

9ALL FIRED UP

When you remove your bakeware from the oven, place your pans on the cork trivets provided to protect your kitchen countertops.

1TIME TO COOL DOWN

Let your bakeware cool completely before running cold water over its surface to avoid thermal shock (meaning it might crack—yikes!). Your bakeware can withstand extreme temperatures on both ends of the spectrum, but sudden and significant changes can reduce their lifespan.

2A HANDY WAY TO CLEAN

Our non-stick coating makes cleaning up by hand a breeze. Save time & water with a gentle scrub to keep your bakeware in optimal condition.

3COME CLEAN

Clean the cooking surface with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or dishcloth until the pan is spotless before storing. For stains on the exterior of the pan, you may use a stronger sponge (we suggest a wool sponge) with a high-strength detergent.

4BREAKING BONDS

If food gets stuck onto the surface, fear not! Cover the baking pan with 2 tablespoons of baking soda and 1 cup vinegar. Let the mixture sit for 30 minutes. This will release stuck-on food so that it can be easily wiped away. Once the mess is gone, wash the baking pan with mild dish soap.

5BROWNING POINTS

Similar to your favorite cast iron pan, browning is natural and bound to occur with regular baking and use (it builds character)—but it’s nothing some baking soda and vinegar can’t remove.

6DRY IT OUT

Dry with a soft, non-abrasive dish towel or place inside your bakeware storage to air dry completely.

7LOAD IT UP

For storing, we recommend utilizing your storage caddies to keep your bakeware in top condition. If stacking, place towels, trivets, or a protective sheath between pan surfaces to minimize direct contact.

1Quick Dip

After removing the caution sticker from the handle, hand wash your kettle with warm, soapy water to remove any dirt or debris left over from the manufacturing and shipping process.

2CLEAN AS A WHISTLE

Wipe dry with a soft, non-abrasive dish towel to avoid scratching. The bottom surface of your kettle should be dry before touching a burner.

3FILL ‘ER UP

Never place an empty kettle on a hot burner or allow your kettle to boil dry without any water in it. This will damage your kettle and potentially your stovetop.

1MAXED OUT

Fill the kettle with water up to the Max Fill line located inside the kettle. Overfilling the kettle will lead to spillage when boiling.

2STICK TO THE STOVE

Never place your kettle on a burner larger than its base, or in an oven, microwave, or dishwasher.

3GRACEFUL LANDING

Sliding across stovetops may damage your kettle or your stovetop (especially glass or induction). Always carefully lift it on and off.

4BURNIN’ UP

Our kettle boils water more efficiently than traditional kettles, so low to medium heat is all you need. Lower heat will increase the longevity of your kettle and avoid causing damage to your stovetop.

5WHISTLEBLOWER

For proper whistling, make sure to tightly place the lid on your kettle.

6THE 20 SECOND RULE

When you hear the whistle indicating the water has finished boiling, turn off your burner and wait approximately 20 seconds until the water ceases to boil. Do not pour boiling water from the kettle.

7TOO HOT TO HANDLE

Always use the provided pot holder or mitt when removing the kettle from the burner or pouring, and do not remove the lid until fully cooled. Handles and lid will be hot to the touch and take 30 minutes to cool down after boiling.

8LOCKED & LOADED

Push the handle lever down until you feel a click or the spout is fully raised and locked into place in order to begin pouring.

9POUR WITH CAUTION

To avoid spilling boiling water (not ideal for tea time), do not pour from the kettle unless the lid is closed and locked.

10ALL FIRED UP

When setting down a hot lid or kettle, place on top of a pot holder or trivet to protect your kitchen countertops.

1QUICK DIP

Hand wash all knives & utensils with warm, soapy water to remove any dirt or debris left over from the manufacturing and shipping process.

2SPICK & SPAN

Wipe the inside surface of the tray and bin with a damp cloth before setting them on your countertop.

3CLEAN AS A WHISTLE

Dry all items with a soft, non-abrasive dish towel to avoid scratching after washing.

4SKIP THE TREATMENT

Your Wood Utensils, Knife Block, and Utensil Bucket come pre-treated, so no need to oil or wax these items before or after use.

1HAND WASH ONLY

Always hand wash your utensils immediately after use with warm soapy water. Ensure you wash both sides of the utensil to avoid uneven drying. Steer clear of submerging your utensils in water or dish soap so they do not warp.

2STAND UP STRAIGHT

Warping & cracking can occur as wood contracts and expands. When drying, stand your utensils upright on your counter or wipe down with a dish towel to remove excess water prior to storing.

3CALL IN THE CLEANING COMMITTEE

To disinfect, sprinkle the affected area with kosher salt, squeeze lemon juice over, and use the lemon to rub the mixture over the area. Allow the paste to dry, and gently wipe off. Alternatively, you can use a solution of 25% distilled white vinegar and 75% water. Do not use bleach or baking soda on your utensils as they may cause damage.

1CUT WITH CAUTION

Avoid surfaces that can dull or damage your knives such as fine china, marble, granite, tile, porcelain, stainless-steel countertops, and glass. We recommend using wooden or quality plastic cutting boards for the ideal stable surface.

2HAND WASH RECOMMENDED

All you need is a gentle scrub to keep your knives in optimal condition. Avoid dishwashing or submerging in water as it can affect the longevity of your knives.

3SO LONG, PATINA

To minimize patina when cutting highly acidic foods, occasionally rinse the blade clean in between chops.

4SHINING STAR

Over time, stainless steel knives lose their shine. To restore, rub white vinegar, lemon juice, or a food-safe stainless steel cleaner over the blade with a dishcloth.

5STAY SHARP

For blade maintenance, regularly sharpen your knives before use and store them in the provided Knife Block. Keeping knives loose in a drawer or dishwashing will dull the blades and risk accidentally getting cut.

6ON THE FLIPSIDE

Scraping food off a cutting board with your blade will dull it over time. Instead, flip the knife around and use the topside when scraping.

1HAND WASH ONLY

Always hand wash both sides of your Cutting Boards immediately after use with warm soapy water. Don’t submerge your boards in water or place them in a dishwasher. If you’re cutting something that doesn’t need a rinse, stay clear of water to extend the longevity of your boards.

2STAND UP STRAIGHT

Warping & cracking can occur as wood contracts and expands. When drying, always stand your boards upright on your counter or in their organizer to allow them to dry evenly.

3TREAT ‘EM RIGHT

To extend each board’s longevity, apply mineral oil with a clean cloth once a month. Let oil set for a few hours before wiping dry with a cloth. For an extra shine, apply food-grade beeswax once dry. Do not use vegetable or nut-based oils on your boards.

4SQUEAKY CLEAN

To disinfect stains, squeeze fresh lemon juice directly onto your boards with a sprinkle of kosher salt, using the lemon to rub the mixture across the entire area. Once dry, gently scrape off. Alternatively, use a solution of 25% distilled white vinegar and 75% water. Do not use bleach or baking soda on your boards.

1READY FOR HEAT

Our Glass Lids were designed to go from the stove to the oven and can handle a maximum temperature of 425°F.

2TIME TO COOL DOWN

Allow Glass Lids to completely cool before running cold water over their surfaces to avoid thermal shock (which will affect the performance and longevity of your lids).

3HANDY TO HANDWASH

Our Glass Lids are dishwasher safe. When hand washing, we recommend cleaning with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge until spotless.

1Squeaky Clean

Rinse with warm water and dish soap immediately after use to prevent items from sticking. Towel dry and allow to dry in a dish rack. We recommend letting the products dry fully before placing them in the included storage rack. 

2Hand Wash Only

The high heat of dishwashing and harsher washing cycles may lead to pit corrosion, wear sharp edges more quickly, and cause other issues.

3Too Hot To Handle

Do not place close to the oven, freezer, or refrigerator. Subjecting stainless steel to extreme temperatures may adversely affect the material properties, leading to corrosion, cracking, or other defects.
