1. When using an enamel pot on a gas stove, do not let the flame go beyond the bottom of the pot. Because the cast iron material of the pot body has strong heat storage efficiency, it can achieve the ideal cooking effect without high heat when cooking. Cooking over a high heat not only wastes energy and causes excessive oil smoke, but also damages the enamel porcelain on the outer wall of the pot.

2. When cooking, first heat the bottom of the pot with medium heat, and then put in the food, because the cast iron material has uniform heat transfer, so when the bottom of the pot is heated, you can adjust the low heat and cook over medium and low heat.

3. Do not burn the cast iron pot for a long time, and do not rinse the hot pot that has just been used with cold water, so as not to cause rapid temperature changes, cause the enamel layer to fall off, and affect the service life of the pot.

4. After the enamel pot is naturally cooled, it is better to clean the pot when it has a slight residual temperature, so that it is easier to clean; If you encounter stubborn stains, you can soak them first, and then use soft tools such as bamboo brushes, loofah cloths, and sponges to clean. Do not use hard and sharp utensils such as stainless steel spatulas and wire brushes to avoid damaging the enamel layer.

5. If you accidentally burn the pot, don't be in a hurry to clean it, you can soak it in warm water overnight, and then scrub it with a soft rag with water; Or you can soak it in hot water for 2 hours, pour out the water, find a soft cloth dipped in baking soda, and rub it vigorously.

6. After the enamel pot is cleaned, use a dry rag to wipe the water inside and outside the pot instead of drying it. If you don't plan to use it for a while, wipe it dry and apply oil. Usually, after washing the pot, use a clip to pad the lid of the pot, which is conducive to air circulation.
