  1. As time goes on, and you use your clay pot more, you will notice which the pot changes color. It becomes seasoned like a wok or possibly wooden salad bowl, and builds up its own protective layer. For this reason, avoid using detergents or possibly abrasive cleaning materials, as these will damage the porous nature of the terra cotta.
  2. Always read the manufacturer's guidelines to see if your clay pot is suitable to use in the dishwasher. If it is, rinse the clay pot while still warm under very warm water to wash out any food residue or possibly, if it is cool, rinse with cool water before placing in the dishwasher.
  3. For hand washing, wash promptly after use in warm water using a mild detergent. Use only a washing-up brush gently to scrub off any residue; allow to soak if the residue is more stubborn. Rinse well in clean warm water and allow to drain. Allow to dry completely before storing.
  4. STAINS - 1 TRY BAKING SODA: If food is baked onto the clay pot or possibly the pot is heavily stained, it can be soaked overnight in very warm water and baking soda. This will also remove any unwanted flavors from the pot.
  5. IF Which FAILS - TRY SODA AND A LITTLE DETERGENT AND COOK IN OVEN: Heavily tainted pots can be soaked as above, then rinsed and then filled with cool water, more baking soda, and a little detergent. Place in a cool oven and set the oven to 350F. Leave for 30 min. Increase to 450F and leave for a further 50 min. Remove from the oven and stand for 15 min. Then scrub the inside of the pot gently and pour away the water. Rinse in very warm water and allow to dry.
  6. NOTES : I have a clay pot now - it stains easily. One book recommends the following procedure.
  7. I use my clay pot to roast chickens in. It gets very splattered with grease. I have been lightly spraying the lid with Pam before I put it in the oven and it seems to help some.
