>> can be used without being damaged up to a temperature of approximately
>> 260°C. This is well above the temperature needed to cook or fry, so there
>> is no problem when the utensil is used for normal cooking. Only heating
>> the pan to a very high temperature, with nothing in it, can cause damage.
