Essential Kitchen Cutlery Part 2
Tin trays
Tin trays are made from tinplate, litho printed. Each colour is separately stoved and the tray is finally given a protective coat of transparent varnish.
Trays should be wiped with a damp cloth and dried before putting away. Dunking them in hot washing up water will soften the protective varnish and the decoration will then get worn very quickly. Don’t use anything abrasive and avoid scratching with knives, etc.
Glass
Table glass is tough provided you follow a few simple rules:
- Don’t subject to sudden temperature changes. If you want a hot drink in a glass, put a spoon in first; pour the hot drink in slowly.
