Ensure your cast iron's longevity and performance with these simple steps. Before first use,

wash and dry, then apply a thin layer of vegetable oil and bake upside down in a preheated

oven. When cooking, preheat, use moderate heat, and limit acidic foods to maintain seasoning.

For cleaning, hand wash with a brush, avoiding soap. Dry immediately to prevent rust, and

re-season as needed. Store in a dry place to avoid rust, and be mindful of gradual temperature

changes to prevent cracking.Troubleshoot rust with a scrub and re-season, or address sticky

residue with a salt scrub and re-seasoning.

POLY RATTAN

To ensure the longevity and pristine condition of your Poly Rattan Baskets, please follow these

care guidelines: Use a damp cloth to gently wipe away any dirt or spills. Avoid using harsh chemicals

or abrasive cleaning tools, as these can damage the material. It is important not to submerge the

baskets in water, as this can weaken the material and affect its structure. Always keep them dry and

store them in a well-ventilated area if used outdoors.

Care for your bamboo steamer by hand washing with mild soap and a soft brush, avoiding

abrasive pads or extended soaking. Ensure thorough air-drying after washing to prevent

mold growth before storing. Store in a well-ventilated area to avoid residual moisture.

mineral oil. Exercise caution and never place the bamboo steamer directly on a heat source, such as a stove burner.

time to time. As with all wood, Acacia wood is not dishwasher safe and should be washed in

warm soapy water and dried immediately. It should not soak in water. As with many wooden

products Acacia wood can dry out, so store in a cold dry place and we recommend applying

vegetable oil every so often to maintain the colour. However as it is a natural product colour

may deteriorate over time.
