1.Immediate Hand Wash:Post-Meal.

Wash sensitive materials (wood, cast iron, carbon steel, and sharp blades) immediately after cooking before food residue hardens, using mild dish soap and a soft non-scratch sponge.

2.Towel Dry or Stovetop Evaporate:Drying Phase.

Dry metal and wood items immediately with a clean cotton towel. Place washed cast iron cookware on a warm stovetop burner over low heat for 60 seconds to evaporate residual moisture from the pores.

3.Condition and Protect:Maintenance.

Rub food-grade mineral oil into wooden cutting boards and utensils once per month. Apply a pea-sized drop of neutral high-smoke-point oil to warm cast iron, buffing away all excess with a paper towel.

🔒 Best Practices for Machine-Safe Items

  • Top Rack Hierarchy: Always load delicate glassware, dishwasher-safe plastics, and silicone utensils on the upper rack away from the exposed bottom heating element.

  • Avoid Overcrowding: Ensure spray arm clearance by rotating the arms manually before starting a cycle. Crowded plates prevent detergent dissolution and trap dirty water pockets.
