Can the freshly fried pot be washed directly with cold water?

It is not recommended to rinse the pot directly with cold water after frying.

The iron pot that has just been fried has a high temperature, and there are food residues and liquid on the inner wall of the pot, and the outer wall of the iron pot is still in a high temperature state. At this time, washing the iron pan with water, on the one hand, water will form high-temperature steam, and people will be easily scalded, similar to adding water to a dry iron pan.

On the other hand, the water mist after adding water carries particles on the inner and outer walls of the pot, which is easy to harm human health if inhaled.

Let's take a look at the relevant knowledge:

Iron pan decontamination method

Boiling hot water in an iron pan can dissolve grease and remove it quickly. It can also be cleaned with hot alkaline water after removing oil stains, which not only does not rust but also keeps the luster of the iron pot.

Why doesn't the iron pot rust?

Unused or newly bought iron pots are easily oxidized and rusted by water and air. After the newly bought iron pan is cleaned, it can be heated to evaporate water and coated with vegetable oil to reduce rust. This method can also be used to prepare the closed wok.

Do you want to wash the pot between two dishes?

Although it is water-saving, oil-saving and time-saving not to brush the pot between two dishes, the seemingly clean inner wall of the pot is easy to attach grease, food residue and carbonized food, and the remaining food will be burnt after cooking again, which will continue to carbonize, reduce food nutrition and endanger human health.

Turn on the range hood for a while after frying.

When cooking, the high temperature of pots and pans and the burning of natural gas will produce harmful substances in the air, threatening the health of respiratory system. Open the range hood for a while and open more windows for ventilation, which can remove more harmful substances.
