Pro Tips for Your BergHOFF Cookware
Get the most out of your BergHOFF investment with these expert cooking tips. Proper use and care will ensure your cookware performs beautifully for years to come.
Preheat Properly
Always preheat your BergHOFF pan on medium heat for 1-2 minutes before adding oil. This ensures even heat distribution and prevents food from sticking.
Let It Rest
Allow your cookware to cool naturally before washing. Sudden temperature changes can affect the non-stick coating's longevity.
Use the Right Utensils
While BergHOFF's FernoGreen coating is scratch-resistant, using wooden or silicone utensils will maximize the lifespan of your cookware.
Medium Heat is Key
BergHOFF's multi-layer base distributes heat so efficiently that medium heat is usually sufficient. This saves energy and protects your cookware.
