Steps to Follow For Using the Continental Homeware Rectangular Roaster

Preparation

1. Inspect the roaster for any visible chips or cracks; discard if damage is present.
2. Wash the interior with warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly to avoid thermal shock.
3. Preheat the oven or stovetop on low‑medium heat, allowing the cast iron to warm gradually.

How to Use the Continental Homeware Rectangular Roaster

1. Add a thin layer of oil or butter to the enamel surface for optimal release.
2. Place ingredients evenly, ensuring they do not overcrowd the pan.
3. Cook according to recipe, turning or stirring as needed; maintain a steady temperature to preserve heat retention.
4. If a second cooking stage is required, reduce heat slightly and continue until desired doneness is achieved.

Health and Safety
