Glass Ceramic Dishes-Care, Cleaning


Glass ceramic will withstand temperature changes and
can be used in microwave, oven, or range.

Wash with detergent, either by hand or in the
dishwasher. Scouring can be done with a plastic scouring
pad and a mild abrasive powder such as Bon Ami. Avoid
using harsh abrasives or steel wool which will mar the
finish.

Cooked-on food may be removed by soaking in baking
soda (3 tablespoons to 1 quart water). If need be, heat
the utensil to speed up action.

Stubborn stains such as coffee or tea in glass
ceramic coffee or tea pots can be removed by using 2
tablespoons of chlorine bleach to 1 quart of water.

Gray marks caused by rubbing against metal can be
removed with a non-abrasive household cleanser and a
plastic scouring pad.
