Troubleshooting tips and frequently asked questions for Pigeon Cooker Cookware.
Troubleshooting tips
If food sticks to the Pigeon non-stick cookware, ensure you are using low to medium heat and avoid metal utensils that can scratch the coating. Re-season the pan by applying a thin layer of oil and heating it for 2-3 minutes.
For stainless steel Pigeon cookware, if you notice discoloration or heat tint, clean with a mixture of vinegar and water (1:3 ratio) and bring to a boil. Then wash with mild detergent and rinse.
If the handle of your Pigeon cookware becomes loose, tighten the screw with a screwdriver. If the handle is riveted and loose, contact customer care for a replacement.
If your Pigeon pressure cooker whistle is not working, check if the whistle is clogged. Clean it with a pin or toothpick. Also, ensure the gasket is not worn out; replace if necessary.
For Pigeon hard anodized cookware, avoid using it on high heat as it can cause discoloration. Use low to medium heat for best results and to preserve the coating.
