I would not, I always let mine soak in hot soapy dishwater about 20 to 30 min and that does it.

I have used them on silicone. Silicone already has insulating properties; but, it still helps the cake bake flat. I did have to increase the baking time.

I purchased this item not too long ago, but I know you should not, use metal spatulas or used rough surfaces to clean any non stick pot and pans.

Of course! Just remember - do NOT use aerosol spray like PAM. Pan washes easily with soap and water. Do not scrub with Brillo.

The bottom of this pan is flat and I would think it would work fine on a ceramic top but I would be careful not to slide it on the top as it would likely scratch it. The Lodge web site says they can be used on any cooking surface except a microwave.

I occasionally will use butter, ghee or olive olive. I never use Pam. It will damage the pans.

I don't see why not. I haven't needed to do this but it would work just fine, just make sure it is oiled, as the lid is constantly getting all the steam from cooking and doesn't have much of the oil left from when you originally seasoned the pot. Would be great to use for hot cakes or tortillas. Might have a little trouble with bacon grease running off the sides though, cause a fire, if you try this this try it outside first so you don't burn the house down:)

Enameled porcelain are easier to clean. Spray them with cooking oil first and you can put them in your dish washer.

If you are gentle you probably can but it could scratch the enamel. Would probably be ok. I bought this one as a replacement for one my Mom had for 30 years that finally gave out and I am sure in all those thanksgivings we used SOS pads on it.

You might be able to, but I have never tried. They just "feel" more like platters than baking pans. You could possibly use them to warm things in the oven or toaster oven I suppose. We love them - perfect for sending foods out to the grill and back on a separate platter, then putting them in the dishwasher.

hi if you are cooking something with a high fat content then no but if it is not high in fat then yes but you only need to brush a bit of oil on the plate. hope this helps

Most certainly ,If not from amazon then from company,Tramontina. the Gourmet is a very good pan.My wife wanted those for Christmas and she loves them.

I am sorry. I don't know the answer to the question. I only have used it on my stove top. I would assume you would use a non abrasive pad after soaking the pan in soapy water; however I don't have that cookware. Val

NO,using metal utensils will scratch the nonstick surface which will compromise the ease of clean up.

Probably not. Also you cannot use olive oil on them it just sticks to the bottom and burns

No, they have a stainless steel cooking surface. For cleaning, I either de-glaze, or use a scour pad. Still, I am very happy with this set.

If you were really desperate, like you had no other saucepan or pot in the house, I guess it might work. The metal is thin and you would get hot spots and that's where the gravy would become cooked solid. Then your cleanup would damage/scrape off the porcelain finish. Then you would be throwing away the roasting pan because it would be rusting...
