The polish doesn't matter. Make sure you thoroughly wash your set before using to get all the gross industrial chemicals off!

Does anyone know how to clean stainless steal pans? I got a pretty inexpensive cookware set a while back and they seriously don't get clean...

I made gluten-free pancakes a couple weeks ago and there's pancake residue stuff all over one of the pans. How do you get it off??? :blink::)

I like to clean the big peices of food off with dishsoap and then I use orange oil to get the greasy residue off it, and then I wash it again with dishsoap mixed with baking soda to make it shiney.

If you can't find orange oil, I have heard of people using vinegar, although it doesn't smell as good and you might want to dilute it.

Thanks! I didn't know about the orange oil.

you might (okay you DO) want to wear gloves when working with orange oil, because in addition to taking the oil and grease off whatever you clean it with it will take the oils off your hands.

OH! Steel wool is not the best thing to use on stainless steel, someone can correct me if I am wrong on that, but I have a set of All Clad pans and in the cleaning intructions they say steel wool is a big No-No for cleaning stainless. Maybe it's different for other pans, I don't know?

Lister, here are some tips for cleaning the pans I have, I imagine they would apply to all stainless steel? (How great your mom got you a set!! :) )

Basic Care and Cleaning:

Don't overheat your All-Clad. Overheating can cause blue and brown stains to appear.

Never use metal utensils on your stainless steel surface or on the non-stick surface.

If your All-Clad becomes discolored, use a cleaner such as Bar Keepers Friend, Bon Ami, Twinkle, Cameo, or Wenol.

If you have any stubborn stains, burns or caked-on food, first try soaking your All-Clad in warm sudsy water (you shouldn't need to submerse the pan, just fill it up) for a while and it should clean right up.

For any really stubborn stains, use a soft scrub product, with a plastic or rubber scraper/pad

Do not use Brillo/Steel wool to clean your All-Clad. It may clean your pan but extended use is going to permanently damage your All-Clad.

For generalized "Bluing" of your stainless steel interior, bring two tablespoons of generic white vinegar and 2 cups of water to a boil, and the blue "film" should disappear.

Do not use oven cleaners or cleansers with chlorine bleach.

Do not use steel wool on your All-Clad Cookware.

I've been using SOS Pads and it does look nice and shiny. Does anyone know if that is Ok and gluten-free? LLee

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      Yes this information helps. I will continue to be pro active with this issues I am having. More testing to be done. Thank you so much for your response.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.

      I have always eaten gluten and never stopped until my recent episode. I started more wheat products as my Dr. requested for the Tissue Transglutaminase Iga Antibody. mye result Value <1.0 Value interpretation: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or =15.0 Antibody detected I do not understand any of it. After eating all that wheat product my body exploded with all sorts of symptoms. I stop gluten ASAP. I am still in the healing process. I started having issues after my surgery.
