How to maintain a stainless steel pot?
Author:

The maintenance methods for stainless steel pots mainly include the following aspects:
Use mild detergents: Avoid using strong alkaline detergents, as they can corrode the surface of the stainless steel pot, making it rough and even causing rust or holes. It is recommended to use mild detergents, such as soapy water or baking soda, which will not damage the pot.
Thorough cleaning: After each use, wipe the inside of the pot with baking soda and citric acid (or white vinegar) to ensure no oil stains or food residues remain. For the exterior, you can use a stainless steel cleaner or scouring powder, wiping with a damp cloth.
Remove severely burnt areas: For severely burnt parts, add hot water and citric acid to soak for ten minutes, then use emery or sandpaper with stainless steel cleaning paste and citric acid, rubbing along the grain of the pot. Note that emery will leave scratches, but rubbing along the grain can reduce their appearance.
Prevent oxidation: Apply a thin layer of cooking oil on the surface of the pot, then dry it. This layer of oil forms a protective film, slowing down oxidation and extending the life of the pot.
Avoid empty burning and excessive heating: When using a gas stove, the flame should not exceed the bottom of the pot to prevent overheating. Avoid dragging or pushing the pot on the stove to prevent damage to the pot and stove surface.
Proper seasoning: When receiving a new pot, first bake it at high temperature to remove the oxide layer, then rub the surface with salt to increase smoothness. During daily use, avoid empty burning and excessive heating.
Storage precautions: After cleaning, wipe dry with a clean cloth or kitchen paper, especially the bottom and edges of the pot where water tends to collect. Keeping the pot dry prevents water residue, reduces scale formation, and avoids rusting.
