Cleaning a non-stick grill pan: what to do
As we said at the beginning, beyond the things to avoid when washing, the solution to how to clean the grill is very simple.
All you need to do to clean your non-stick grill pan is Remove grease and all other food residues with a simple napkin . Afterwards, all you have to do is separate what you have removed, and rinse the grill pan or non-stick pan under running water . At this point, and only now, you can use a common dish detergent .
Timing is crucial. It's a good idea to do this after each use, because if too much time passes between cooking, it will be difficult to remove the grease with one or more paper towels. But it's not just that: if grease is allowed to remain on a pan or grill after improper cleaning, it will make the food cooked on it toxic. Cleanliness is essential at all times, in every aspect of life.
Sometimes, despite your best efforts, grease may still cling to your nonstick grill pan. At this point, you might consider soaking your precious tool in boiling water: this should encourage the grime to loosen as quickly as possible, making subsequent cleaning much easier.
