Everyone knows the feeling: You've just pulled the perfect sausage off the grill, but after a few minutes on your plate, it's only lukewarm. With the Hotty, this problem is a thing of the past! To ensure you get the most out of it and enjoy it for a long time, there are a few things to keep in mind.
The right preparation – How to start with your Hotty
🔥 Place tea lights correctly: Only use the recesses provided – this way the Hotty stands stable and distributes the heat evenly.
🔥 Control the temperature: The more tea lights you light, the hotter the plate becomes. Adjust the number depending on your desired warmth.
🔥 Don't forget to preheat: Light the tea lights about 5-10 minutes before serving so that the Hotty can heat up evenly.
The perfect use – Keeps your food warm and delicious
Once the Hotty is up to temperature, the grilling fun can begin! It ensures that your meat, vegetables, or other side dishes stay warm for a long time.
- Place securely on the table: Make sure the Hotty is on a flat surface so that it doesn't wobble and the heat is distributed evenly.
- Use different temperature zones: Keep meat hot on one side and store more delicate foods such as bread or vegetables on the other.
Care & Cleaning – How to keep your Hotty beautiful for a long time
To ensure you enjoy your Hotty for as long as possible, proper care is crucial. Depending on the model, there are a few differences.
🔥 Hotty Halo & Hotty Tapas
- Season before first use: Rub the plate with a little oil and heat it to 250 degrees in the grill – this protects against rust and provides a natural non-stick coating.
- If nothing is burnt: Simply wipe it off – done!
- For heavier soiling: Soak in the sink with hot water without detergent for about 15 minutes, then wipe out or carefully remove stubborn residues, dry thoroughly and rub in a little oil.
- Remove rust spots before use: If rust forms, rub it off with a kitchen sponge and then rub a thin layer of olive oil.
- Dry the folds especially: If you place the sheets inside each other, make sure that the folds are really dry to avoid rust formation.
- Clean the wooden edge properly: Wipe the wooden edge only with a damp cloth to avoid damaging the paintwork.
🔥 Hotty Legacy
The Hotty Legacy is particularly easy to care for, as the stainless steel plate is dishwasher-safe ! You can skip the handwashing – simply put it in the dishwasher and let it dry. The same applies here:
- Wipe the wooden edge only with a damp cloth to protect the varnish.
Conclusion – More enjoyment, less stress
With the Hotty, your grilled food not only stays at the perfect temperature, but you can also enjoy your meal in a convivial atmosphere without having to constantly run back and forth between the grill and the table. Proper use and care will ensure your Hotty will last you for many years – for countless enjoyable barbecue evenings! 🔥
