The best way to clean your Ducq pan clean is by hand, under a hot tap. Use a soft sponge or cloth and a mild detergent to wipe the surface of the pan clean. Avoid abrasive cleaners or metal scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface of the pan. Washing the pan by hand will preserve its shine and ensure that the non-stick coating, if any, remains intact.

In addition to cleaning daily, it is wise to keep your Ducq pan periodically to give it a more thorough treatment. This can be done, for example, by lightly oiling the pan with a few drops of vegetable oil. Then gently heat the pan on the stove to distribute the oil evenly and allow it to soak in. This method helps to restore the non-stick coating and gives the pan a nice, even shine. This type of maintenance does not need to be done often, but it can help keep the pan in top condition, especially if you notice the pan starting to get a little duller.
