Where does the Caraway name come from?

Caraway is a type of biennial flower that sprouts flavorful seeds commonly used in rye bread recipes. The oblong shape of the seed inspired our ergonomic pots and pans handle design.

What is the meaning of the tea towel patterns used throughout your branding?

They are a nod to the vintage flour sack dishcloths and towels made popular in the 1940s. During that era, it was commonplace to reuse bespoke materials and packaging that subtly displayed one's aesthetic sensibility.

Where are Caraway products made?

Our founder designed Caraway in New York and vetted vendors worldwide when deciding where to produce. As a result, our products are all made in world-class factories based in China, all of which adhere to our strict ethical manufacturing practices and maintain the required standards for BSCI or SMETA.

Our partners have the same thoughtful work environments we provide for our own employees as part of the Caraway family. Responsibility and ethical manufacturing are core Caraway values; we feel strongly about building personal, long-lasting relationships with our suppliers and offering a transparent look into the process.

Product

What’s so great about ceramic non-stick vs Teflon®, stainless steel, or cast iron?

Check out our "Cookware" or "Bakeware" set pages above - we’ve put together a fancy little chart for you to explain the difference!

Should I hand wash my Caraway products or can I use the dishwasher?

Dishwashers are notorious for their harsh detergents and abrasive way of cleaning. Because of this, we suggest that all Caraway products never be put in your dishwasher since it drastically reduces the life of your non-stick properties and can potentially cause cosmetic damage. Instead, a gentle hand wash is all you need to keep your Caraway looking fresh!

How do I clean my pans?

Clean with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or dishcloth to keep your pans looking fresh! Avoid the dishwasher as the detergent can damage the non-stick coating.

What type of tools should I use with the cookware & bakeware?

Wooden, silicone, plastic, or nylon utensils are all great to use with your Caraway products! Rough, sharp edges of metal utensils can damage the non-stick coating, and we strongly recommend that you avoid these.

Do I need butter, oil, or cooking spray to cook with Caraway cookware?

Ceramic is naturally a non-stick cooking surface, so a very little amount of oil or butter will go a long way. We suggest coating the entire interior with a light dab using a paper towel or cloth to keep things silky smooth when cooking.

Do I need to season my pans?

Ceramic non-stick pans, unlike cast iron, do not need seasoning. Other than giving your products a quick rinse with warm, soapy water when you first receive them, you’re ready to start cooking!

How hot do my pans need to be to start cooking?

Low to medium heat is all you need! Our pans heat up in under a minute and can retain its temperature more efficiently compared to traditional cookware. You’ll be able to crisp and fry all day long thanks to our non-stick layers.

How safe is your non-stick coating?

Our ceramic non-stick is made from inorganic natural ingredients which are all 100% safe to use in contact with all foods (and FDA approved). Plus, the absence of potentially dangerous chemicals like PTFE, PFOA, PFAS, Lead, and Cadmium means that there is no chance of harmful materials leaching into your food, even if you accidentally scratch or overheat your pan.

Does Caraway ceramic non-stick wear over time?

Yes, all non-stick coatings will slowly wear off given frequent use. Just like your favorite pair of shoes, the more you use them the faster they wear out. But with delicate care and cleaning, Caraway cookware is designed to last years!

How many boxes should I expect my cookware/bakeware to arrive in?

For each complete set you order, you can expect will one compact, recyclable box to eliminate waste and keep everything simple.

Do Caraway products have a warranty?

Our cookware and bakeware have a limited one-year warranty covering any major damage to the body, handles, lids, or anything else that functionally impairs the cookware, other than discoloration or damage through wear & tear. Read more here.

Why are my Food Storage lids tight to open?

Our lids were crafted with an Air Release Technology, specifically designed to keep freshness in and odors out.

To open, simply pull up from one of the lid’s side grooves to let air flow out and reduce suction, holding the base for extra support. Once the air is released, remove the lid by pulling back.

Cookware

What can I make in Caraway cookware?

Anything that you can dream up! Our essential cookware set is versatile enough to handle all sorts of recipes–from scrambled eggs to a demi-glace.

Is Caraway Induction compatible?

Yes, our cookware is induction compatible. The bases of our pans' diameters are 5.5" for the Sauce Pan, 6" Fry Pan, 6.5" Dutch Oven, and 8" for the Saute Pan. Although our cookware is compatible with induction stovetops, not all induction stovetops are compatible with us! We suggest reaching out to your manufacturer to confirm.

Is there a lid for the Fry Pan?

The Fry Pan uses our medium sized lid which it shares with the Dutch Oven. This means you gain this lid with purchase of the full Cookware Set and with purchase of the Dutch Oven. Contact our team for a special saving on purchasing both the Dutch Oven and Fry Pan!

Is the storage system included in the cookware set?

Yes, it sure is! When you purchase a cookware set you receive our uniquely designed pan racks and lid holder! The storage system is only available with the purchase of a full cookware set, and is not sold individually even if multiple pieces are purchased.

Is Caraway Cookware oven safe?

Yes! Each piece of cookware is designed purposefully to be used in and on all cooking surfaces and ovens. Our cookware can handle up to 550°F without breaking a sweat.

Bakeware

Is the storage system included in the Bakeware set?

All purchases of our Bakeware Sets come with our custom-designed storage solutions. The Half-Bakeware set includes one such system and the Complete Bakeware Set includes two. The storage systems are only available with purchase of the sets and are not sold separately or included with individual Bakeware pieces.

Should I hand wash my Caraway Bakeware or can I use the dishwasher?

Dishwashers are notorious for their harsh detergents and abrasive way of cleaning. Because of this, we suggest that all Caraway products never be put in your dishwasher since it drastically reduces the life of your non-stick properties and can potentially cause cosmetic damage. Instead, a gentle hand wash is all you need to keep your Caraway looking fresh!

What material is your Bakeware made of?

Our Bakeware is manufactured with an aluminized steel core. Stainless steel is used for the handles on two of the pieces. The interior is made with the exact same non-stick coating as our Cookware; free of lead, cadmium, PTFE (Teflon®), PFOA, and other harmful chemicals.
