Preparation Before First Use:
Wash the pot thoroughly and dry. Heat gently on low flame, add a small quantity of cooking oil, spread evenly across the interior, and heat for 1-2 minutes. Allow to cool naturally. This process helps establish the pot's natural non-stick properties.
Usage Guidelines:
With continued use, oil absorbed into the pot's micro-pores will create a natural non-stick effect.
For initial use, dry the pot after cleaning, heat gently, add oil, and cook on low heat to enhance the seasoning.
Once seasoned, medium and low heat are generally sufficient for cooking.
Care Instructions:
1. Clean with water after use, then dry thoroughly using heat or a low flame.
2. For extended storage, apply a thin layer of cooking oil after drying.
3. If rust appears, scrub with coarse salt and a stiff brush or cloth, then repeat the boiling water and oil seasoning process.
