Cutlery care
Modern cutlery is easy to care for but following certain tips will help prolong its life:
- Rinsing with hot water immediately after use helps to reduce the chemical reaction of salts or acids.
- Wash as soon after use as possible and do not leave to soak overnight as mineral salts in the water will attack the metal surface.
- Store and wash stainless steel and silver cutlery separately.
- Wash knives separately and place spoon bowls and fork tines in an upward position when washing to allow the water to rinse the items more effectively.
- Remove cutlery and dry immediately after washing, paying particular attention to knife blades. Never leave in a closed, damp dishwasher.
- Always follow the dishwasher and detergent manufacturers' instructions for use.
