Rinto Multipot Enamelware: How to Clean & Maintain
The Rinto multipot handles boiling, stewing, quick stir-frying, deep-frying, and food storage in the refrigerator. It is enamelware, not non-stick, and enamel needs gentle handling to stay in good condition.
Heat Control
- Cook on medium heat. Do not use high heat.
- On gas, keep the flame within the base of the pot. A flame that licks up the sides will burn the handle.
- Avoid sudden temperature changes. When reheating food taken from the refrigerator, start on gentle heat and stir well.
- Do not fill the pot to its maximum capacity.
Everyday Care
- Wash with a soft sponge and mild detergent. Never use abrasive cleaners.
- Use wooden or silicone utensils to avoid scratching the enamel.
- Not suitable for the dishwasher, oven, or microwave.
- Replace the pot if the enamel inside cracks or chips.
Safety
- The handle gets hot. Always use oven mitts.
- Keep out of reach of children.
Preventing Scorching
- Stir occasionally while cooking so food does not catch on the base.
- If food does burn on, add hot water and bring it to the boil to soften the residue.
- Remove anything remaining with a soft scrub brush.
Stubborn Stains
Baking soda is the most effective treatment for caked-on stains.
- Mix baking soda with water into a paste — neither too thick nor too runny, so it clings to the stain.
- Spread it over the stain and let it dry.
- Spray the dried paste with vinegar so it foams.
- Scrub with a sponge until the stain lifts, then wash and dry the pot.
