Stainless steel cookware is one of the most popular and sought-after types of kitchen utensils due to its strength, durability and resistance to corrosion.

However, like any dishware, it requires proper care, especially in terms of washing and cleaning.

To prevent stainless steel cookware from darkening after cleaning, it should be washed in warm water using regular dishwashing detergent.

However, you should avoid using hard brushes, as they may scratch the surface.

Washing powders, products intended for cleaning plumbing fixtures and cooking surfaces are also prohibited – all of them can damage the surface of the dishes.
