Griddle
(depending on the model)
Using your reversible cast-iron griddle
Non-integrated reversible (double-sided) griddle affords a larger cooking surface for preparing food
you would normally cook in a frying pan or a skillet. The ribbed side of the reversible griddle can be
used for food normally grilled, such as meats or vegetables. The smooth side of your griddle provides
an extra-large cooking surface for food usually prepared in a skillet or frying pan. Before first use,
rinse with hot water and dry thoroughly. Prepare the surface with cooking spray or vegetable shortening.
Griddle precautions:
Do not place the griddle in a microwave oven.
Do not clean the griddle in a dishwasher.
Do not allow grease to accumulate under the griddle as it can be a fire hazard. Clean under the
griddle with hot, soapy water as soon as it is cool.
Do not use oil on the griddle for extended lengths of time. Permanent staining and craze lines on
the surface could result.
Do not overheat the griddle. Leaving the griddle burner on at HI for an extended time without food
can damage the nonstick coating.
Use only plastic, nylon, wooden utensils, or SilverStone® kitchen utensils to prevent the marring
of the coating.
Never use knives and do not cut the food on the griddle.
Do not use metal utensils with sharp points or rough, sharp edges which might damage the griddle
surface.
Store carefully to prevent scratching.
If something has spilled under the griddle, it should be cleaned up as soon as possible to prevent
"Baked On" food soil.
Do not clean the griddle in the self-cleaning oven. Doing so will damage the nonstick coating.
Instructions for cleaning the griddle are available in the chapter Cleaning and Maintenance.
We recommend cleaning the griddle after each use. Use soft sponge and warm water.
Use the storage drawer for storing griddle. Keep it in a dedicated place in the drawer.
Store the griddle carefully to prevent damaging it.
