Know before you buy
Clean the tray with hot water and a soft brush or cloth, avoiding harsh detergents. After washing, dry it thoroughly on the stovetop or in a warm oven to prevent rust, then apply a very light coating of oil to maintain the seasoning.
No, this tray is not dishwasher safe. The harsh chemicals and high-pressure water in a dishwasher will strip the natural flax oil seasoning and can cause the iron to rust.
Yes, the spun iron construction is exceptionally durable and oven-safe up to 300°C (572°F). Its 2mm thickness ensures even heat distribution, making it ideal for high-temperature bread baking or roasting.
The tray comes pre-seasoned with natural flax oil, so it is ready to use right out of the box. However, you may choose to lightly oil and heat it once more to further build the non-stick patina before your first bake.
While the seasoning provides a protective barrier, it is best to avoid cooking highly acidic foods for long periods. If the seasoning is well-maintained, it will handle most standard baking tasks without issue.
The tray measures 17 inches in length and 13.5 inches in width, which is equivalent to a standard half-sheet size. The 0.78-inch rim provides a secure grip for lifting while maximizing the usable baking area.
