Seasoning & first‑use instructions (simple steps)
- Clean: Rinse with hot water and scrub to remove any manufacturing residue; dry completely.
- Oil: Apply a thin, even coat of a high‑smoke‑point oil (flaxseed, canola, grapeseed or vegetable oil) over the entire surface and edges.
- Bake: Place in a preheated oven (upper range of home ovens) or on your stovetop/griddle and heat until oil polymerizes — repeat 2–3 thin coats for a durable seasoned layer.
- Cool & store: Let cool, wipe away any excess oil, and store dry. The rack will improve with repeated use and seasoning.
Care & maintenance
- After cooking, scrape away food and wipe with a paper towel or a hot water rinse; avoid prolonged soaking.
- Dry immediately and rub with a light layer of oil to preserve seasoning.
- Avoid dishwashers and harsh detergents that strip seasoning.
- If rust appears, remove with a scouring pad, re‑season the surface, and it will be usable again.
